What this document is
“Comunicación de desplazamiento por estudios UE” is the official model of Spain's Ministry of Inclusion, Social Security and Migration for student mobility within the EU under Directive (EU) 2016/801 and article 59.2 of RD 1155/2024. A non-EU student with a study permit issued by another EU state may take part of their programme at a Spanish higher education institution for up to 360 days, provided the institution notifies the Oficina de Extranjería.
The ministry describes its communication models as guidance (not mandatory), but they collect everything the law requires. FoxDocs writes your data into the fields of the official PDF and leaves its layout unchanged.
Who files it and where
- the Spanish higher education institution receiving the student makes the notification; its representative (rector, director, etc.) signs the form;
- the student takes part in an EU programme, a multilateral programme with mobility measures, or studies under an agreement between universities;
- the study permit of the first EU state must cover the whole period of study in Spain;
- it goes to the Oficina de Extranjería of the province where the studies start — any time before entry and no later than one month after it; the form asks for the original and a copy;
- check with your Oficina de Extranjería how to file (in person by appointment or through the electronic register).
What the form asks for
- the university's representative: name, DNI/NIE/passport, name of the Spanish institution and in what capacity they represent it;
- the expiry date of the study permit (dd/mm/yyyy) and the EU state that issued it;
- the basis: EU programme, multilateral programme or agreement between universities — with its name;
- the student: given name, two surnames, nationality, NIE (if any), passport, date and place of birth, father's and mother's names, marital status (S/C/V/D/Sp), address in Spain, phone, e-mail;
- the studies in Spain and the expected duration (360 days at most);
- place and date, signature, province of the Oficina de Extranjería.
What to attach
- a valid passport or other travel document;
- the study permit of the first EU state covering the whole mobility period;
- proof that the student studies under an EU programme, a multilateral programme or an agreement between universities;
- proof that the Spanish institution has accepted the student;
- check the full list and any fee with the Oficina de Extranjería.
How to fill it in with FoxDocs
- Tell the chat, in any language, about the student, the first state's permit, the programme and the dates.
- The assistant fills in the fields in capitals, splits dates into dd/mm/yyyy boxes, writes the country in Spanish and ticks the basis and marital status.
- Download the PDF, check it, have the university's representative sign it and file it with the Oficina de Extranjería.
