Are you a Canadian citizen planning a trip to Spain? One of the most common questions for Canadian travelers is how many days they can stay in Spain without a visa. The good news is that as a Canadian citizen, you do not require a visa for short stays in Spain, regardless of your nationality.

According to the official website of the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Canadian citizens can stay in Spain and other Schengen countries for up to 90 days within a 180-day period without a visa. This means that you can enjoy your vacation in Spain for up to three months without the need for a visa.

It is important to note that the 90-day limit applies to the entire Schengen area, which includes 26 European countries. This means that once you have spent 90 days in Spain or any other Schengen country within a 180-day period, you must leave the Schengen area and wait until the 180-day period resets before you can return.

If you plan to stay in Spain for longer than 90 days, you may need to apply for a long-term visa or residence permit. The specific requirements and procedures for obtaining a long-term visa or residence permit can vary depending on your reasons for staying in Spain, such as work, study, or family reunification.

It is always recommended to check the latest visa requirements and regulations before traveling to Spain to ensure a smooth and hassle-free experience. With the proper preparation and documentation, you can enjoy your time in Spain to the fullest.
