Notes and caveats

The official service page describes studies of less than 365 days and requires a personal consular application, study program, institutional electronic student filing, proof of funds, and a consular interview. For stays exceeding six months, applicants aged 16 or older must provide the specified foreign police certificate and affidavit. The law now requires incoming foreign nationals to declare that they have health insurance; implementation details for student applicants were not stated on the visa checklist. Family reunification and long-term residence rules are separate processes and are not treated as automatic visa benefits.
