Student Permit Extensions and Post-Graduation Options

When your student visa in Spain is close to expiring, you have a few legal paths to stay and continue building your future here.

1. Extend your student permit
If you plan to keep studying — for example, enrolling in another course, master’s, or language program — you can renew your existing Spain student permit before it expires.

2. Apply for a job-seeking visa
Graduates from recognized Spanish institutions can apply for a job-seeking visa, which lets you remain in Spain for up to 12 months while you look for work or start a professional project.

3. Transition to long-term residency
Once you secure employment, Gazelle helps you transition from student or job-seeking status into a work or residence permit, paving the way toward permanent residency.

At Gazelle Immigration Group, we guide you through whichever option fits your goals — preparing documents, submitting renewals, and ensuring your stay in Spain remains fully compliant and stress-free.
