The Spanish Internship Visa (Visado de Prácticas) is for non-EU students, recent graduates or trainees doing structured internships with Spanish organisations. Spanish Consulates commonly request private health insurance as part of the visa file. This guide covers what cover the visa file normally needs and the internship-specific considerations for shorter-term applicants.
The Internship Visa is for non-EU nationals doing structured internship placements with Spanish organisations — typically students, recent graduates or early-career professionals on training programmes. The visa requires a signed internship agreement with the host organisation.
Most Spanish-regulated visa-compliant cover is annual, but shorter-period cover aligned to internship duration may be available. Confirm what the Consulate accepts for your specific internship length.
Internship applicants are typically younger and benefit from lower base premium rates. Indicative monthly cost: EUR 40–75 for under-25 applicants. See our student cost guide for context.
Some hosting organisations provide private cover as part of the internship package. Verify what is provided and whether it meets visa-compliant structure. The visa file may still need separate evidence.
