Spain Visa for Saudi Citizens

Apply to the country where you will spend the most nights, or the country of the main purpose of your trip. If your nights are equal, apply to the first Schengen country you will enter.

You can apply up to 6 months before your trip, and no later than 15 days before it. We recommend applying 4–6 weeks before you travel, because appointments can be limited in busy seasons.

Usually 15 days after your appointment at the centre. If the consulate needs a detailed review, it can take up to 45 days. Book non-refundable flights and hotels only after your visa is issued.

It depends on the visa you receive. The consulate decides how many days you can stay, the visa dates and the number of entries. It can be less than 90 days, for example only the dates of your trip. Check three fields on your visa sticker: Duration of stay (days), From / Until, and Number of entries. The maximum is 90 days in any 180-day period, even with a multiple-entry visa. If your visa is shorter than your trip, change your return date: staying longer can lead to fines and refusal of future visas.

Saudi citizens living in Saudi Arabia who meet the requirements usually receive a multiple-entry visa valid for 5 years, or until 3 months before the passport expires if that is sooner. Residents of other nationalities usually receive a visa for their trip dates; after using previous Schengen visas correctly, they can receive longer multiple-entry visas. The final decision is always the consulate's.

Yes. A Schengen visa lets you travel in all 29 Schengen countries, unless your visa sticker says otherwise. On this trip, Spain should stay your main destination, as stated in your application.

Yes. You visit the BLS centre in Riyadh or Jeddah to submit your file and give your fingerprints and photo. Children under 12 do not give fingerprints. We book your appointment and prepare your file.

The refusal letter explains the reason, and how and by when you can appeal. You can appeal, or apply again with a stronger file, and we help you with both. Our service fee is retained, and the official visa fee is not refunded by the embassy.
