Spain visa for Indian citizens
Visa required
🇮🇳 Indian passport → 🇪🇸 Spain: yes — a visa arranged in advance.
How it works
You'll need a visa arranged in advance through the embassy or consulate (or an authorised visa centre): application form, passport photos, fee, and often proof of funds, accommodation and onward travel. Start early — processing can take weeks.
Before the airport: run the "Will I board?" checklist for this route →
Beyond Spain: the India passport
The 🇮🇳 India passport ranks #146 of 199 worldwide, entering 58 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (see the world ranking).
Also visa-free on the India passport: 🇹🇭 Thailand (60 days), 🇲🇾 Malaysia, 🇩🇲 Dominica (180 days) — all 58 open destinations.
Going the other way? Spanish citizens visiting India need an e-Visa, applied for online before travel.
