Student stay offices in Pontevedra

The Immigration Offices in Pontevedra

Autorización de estancia de larga duración por estudios is an authorisation, so it is decided at an Oficina de Extranjería under the Government Delegation — not at a police station. They are separate networks with separate appointment systems, and going to the wrong one is the most common wasted journey in Spanish immigration.
