Important note:

Some people wonder about the amount of money that must be available in the bank to be able to apply for a Spanish visa.

The answer is as follows: you must have in your account an amount of money with which you can spend approximately 64.86 euros per day in Spain

In other words, 22 thousand Moroccan dirhams, or approximately 271 thousand Algerian dinars, or 6 thousand Tunisian dinars, is sufficient for a bank statement to enter Spain for a month.

This amount is for the bank statement, but there are other expenses that must be taken into account

What after submitting the application at the Spanish Consulate?

When the applicant completes the above-mentioned steps, the Consulate will process the application for a decision on whether to accept or reject it.

Within 15 days, a response will be given. In most cases, if all documents are correct, the response will be positive. In the event that 60 days have passed and no response has been received, the applicant’s file has been rejected, and he can file an appeal against the decision with the Appeals Committee at the Consulate.
