Aimed at young people between 17 and 30 years old with a European Union passport and non – European Students, unemployed or job seekers, with completed secondary studies and a vocation for hospitality and tourism, who wants to start or extend their stay in Spain and take paid internships.

For non-EU students the access requirements are:

• • Currently studying related to the Hospitality and Tourism sector in their country of origin in a recognized official center, (universities or highly qualified institutions) or
  • Have completed these aforementioned studies and that the date of completion does not exceed 2 years. In certain countries this requirement may not be necessary.

These non-EU students (countries outside the European Union), must process their study visa.

• Certificate of enrollment in Ecotur
• Proof of payment of the study program.
• Plan of studies to be carried out.
• Passport copy
• Study Visa Form + payment of fees if requested
• Medical insurance that covers hospitalization costs of up to 30,000 euros and repatriation in case of death. Companies accepted in Spain, AXA or MAPFRE for example.
• Financial solvency: The student must demonstrate that he has 600 euros in a bank account for each month that he will stay in Spain, therefore 3,600 euros. The embassy official sometimes understands that since the accommodation during these 6 months in Spain is covered by the study program, sometimes he does not request this requirement of financial solvency, which greatly speeds up the financial issue.
