    What is this procedure?

    What is it, what is it for, and who needs it?

    What is Work Permit for Students?

    This is the procedure by which an employer requests a work authorization on behalf of a foreign student with a study stay in Spain. It allows working as an employee in a way that's compatible with studies. Note: in certain cases (higher education, regulated vocational training, training for professional certificates), the stay already automatically authorizes working up to 30 hours per week without this procedure.

    What it's used for

    • Work legally as an employee while studying
    • Have your company hire you with legal guarantees
    • Combine employment and academic training
    • Gain work experience in Spain

    Who needs it

    1

    Student stay holders with a job offer

    We know that balancing studies and work isn't easy, and the administrative side can be overwhelming. The good news is that if a company wants to hire you, there's a specific procedure to let you work legally. We make sure both you and your employer have everything in order.

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions

    It's the employer (the company that wants to hire you) who must submit the work authorization application on your behalf. The student does not file it directly. Our team coordinates with both parties to ensure everything is perfect.

    If your studies are higher education (university, master's, doctorate), regulated employment training, or training for obtaining a technical aptitude certificate or professional qualification, your stay authorization already automatically allows you to work up to 30 hours per week without this additional procedure.

    Work must be compatible with your studies. In cases of automatic authorization, the limit is 30 hours per week. In any case, your work schedule cannot interfere with your class schedule.
