Spain Visit Visa from Pakistan

Spain runs its Pakistani intake through a different centre operator to most Schengen missions, so the appointment portal and the centre fee both differ.

The Spanish consulate asks for the itinerary to be consistent with the accommodation to the day, and treats a mismatch as a reason to request documents.

Summer volume from Pakistan is heavy, so appointment queues lengthen sharply between May and August.

How we handle your Spain application

1. Tell us the trip. Dates, travellers and purpose, on the web or on WhatsApp in Urdu or English.
2. Upload your documents. We read your passport automatically and tell you what is missing.
3. File prepared. Forms completed, cover letter and day-by-day itinerary drafted, documents ordered the way BLS International expects them.
4. Case officer review. Every field and every document, checked before anything is submitted.
5. Appointment tracked. We watch BLS International availability and message you the moment a date opens.

Documents you need

• Valid Pakistani passport, issued within the last 10 years, valid at least 3 months past your return date, with 2 blank pages
• Two biometric photographs, 35x45mm, white background, taken in the last 6 months
• Schengen-compliant travel insurance with a minimum of EUR 30,000 medical cover and repatriation, valid in all Schengen states for every day of the trip
• Confirmed return flight reservation, not a paid ticket
• Accommodation booking covering every night of the stay
• Bank statement for the last 6 months, stamped and signed on every page by the branch

What it costs

• VisaDIY service fee: PKR 20,000. Application completed, documents checked, cover letter and itinerary drafted, appointment tracked, WhatsApp updates.
• Government fee: €90 (about PKR 28,900). €90, converted at the consular rate on the day you pay. EUR 45 for ages 6 to 12, free under 6.

Total via VisaDIY: PKR 48,900 per applicant. We do not mark up government or centre charges.

How long it takes

Decisions typically take 15 calendar days, stretching to 30 to 45 days in peak season. That clock starts at your appointment, not when you decide to apply, so the queue is usually the longer half of the timeline. Start 6 to 8 weeks before you intend to travel.

Why Spain applications get refused

• Itinerary and booking mismatch. Dates on the itinerary that do not line up exactly with the hotel and flight reservations.
• Insufficient daily funds. Spain applies a minimum daily amount per traveller. A balance that covers the flight but not the stay fails.
• Main destination rule. Applying to Spain for a multi-country trip where most nights fall elsewhere.
• Photo specification. Photographs older than six months, or with the wrong background.
