You hold an Indian passport and live in Quebec or Atlantic Canada on a PR, work or study permit — so you apply for Spain from Canada, directly at the Consulate General of Spain in Montreal, by appointment. No third-party VFS. One Spain visa opens all 27 Schengen countries — we win the appointment and build the file.
Can an Indian passport holder living in Montreal apply for a Spain visa from Canada?
Yes. As an Indian national legally resident in Quebec — permanent resident, or a valid work or study permit holder — you apply for your Spain Schengen visa in Canada, not in India. You apply directly at the Consulate General of Spain in Montreal (1200 McGill College Avenue), by appointment — Spain does not outsource to a third-party centre here. Its jurisdiction covers Québec (except Gatineau) and Atlantic Canada, and the €90 Type-C visa lets you travel across all 27 Schengen countries.

Residence decides where you apply
A Schengen visa is applied for from your country of legal residence — so India’s centres don’t apply to you. Unlike France, Spain doesn’t use a third-party VFS in Canada: you apply directly at the Consulate General of Spain in Montreal, which covers Québec and all of Atlantic Canada. The three things that trip people up:
The consulate appointment. Direct-booking slots are scarce and open unpredictably — booking late costs you the trip.
Proving your residence. Your PR card or permit must be valid at least three months beyond your return.
Return-intent as a non-citizen. The consulate wants your Canadian job, permit and home — clear reasons you return.
The €90 consulate fee is non-refundable — a poorly framed file wastes it. Opaige builds the version Spain approves the first time.
What Opaige does
Because Spain takes applications directly — no VFS buffer — the appointment itself is the bottleneck, and slots open unpredictably. Our system watches the consulate’s booking around the clock and locks a date inside your travel window, so the biggest obstacle between you and Europe is simply removed.
We confirm your PR card or permit qualifies and package your proof of legal residence exactly as the consulate expects.
Your Canadian ties — job, permit, home — presented so the consulate sees a clear reason you return.
We frame Spain as your main destination correctly, so your visa opens every Schengen country cleanly.
Front-loaded document quality so the consulate doesn't pause for more information and cost you weeks.
The €90 consulate fee is paid at your Montreal appointment. Opaige service fees are separate, from $199.
