Applying for a Spain visa

Spain delegates file collection to BLS International in many countries (Morocco, Algeria, India, the UK among others). The insurance certificate covering the whole stay is checked at submission. For residence and study visas, Spain requires comprehensive zero-deductible coverage from insurers operating in Spain: our long stay and student pages cover these cases.

Healthcare costs in Spain

Public hospitals and private clinics bill uninsured visitors in full; an emergency followed by hospitalization quickly reaches several thousand euros. Your certificate with 30,000 euros minimum covers you across Spain, islands included.
