Student visa

(For non-European students)

Student visa is mandatory for any foreigners who do not belong to any of the countries of the European Union, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein wishing to study in Spain for more than 90 days.

The visa or residence permit must be processed in your country of residence prior to your arrival in Málaga. To apply for a visa please contact the nearest Spanish Embassy or Consulate in your country. This should be done as soon as you have received the letter of acceptance from UMA. The application must be submitted personally, with the official form in the Spanish Consular Office or Embassy in your country.

To find the closest Spanish Embassy in your country, visit:

It is important that you apply for a “student visa”; otherwise, you will not be able to extend your stay in Spain as a student. The visa is affixed in your passport before departing to your country, and must be presented at the border Officials upon entry into Spain.

Non-European students are responsible for the application of their VISA or any other procedures established by the Spanish Embassy /Consulates in home country prior to the arrival in Malaga.
