For Surrey residents, BLS lists London as the route for a Spain visa application. The listed Spain Visa Application Centre is at 20 St Andrew Street, London EC4A 3AG. Check the route before planning an appointment.
To receive notifications when matching London appointments are detected, try the Spain Visa Alerts London appointment finder. Prepare your application and think about the dates you can attend before using an alert.
Start with your residence route
BLS asks applicants to choose the consular district where they reside and lists Surrey under London. Woking is the focus of this page, but your actual place of residence determines which district to select. If you reside in Surrey, the listed centre for this route is London; do not rely on the town name alone.
BLS identifies itself as the official partner of the Embassy of Spain in London. Its Spain Visa Application Centre is at 20 St Andrew Street, London EC4A 3AG. BLS states that applications from outside the intended consular jurisdiction will not be accepted, so confirm your residence route before arranging your visit.
Match the visa to your trip
The London BLS site lists Tourist Visit as a short-term visa category for stays of up to 90 days. Check that this category fits your purpose before searching for an appointment. You can review the BLS London visa information and its Tourist Visit details as you prepare.
For a Schengen application through this centre, Spain must be the country where you spend the most time. If your stays are equal in several Schengen countries, Spain must be your first point of entry. Compare your itinerary with this rule before selecting the application route.
Use waiting time to prepare
While checking for an appointment, work through the BLS Tourist Visit checklist and the Schengen application form. Follow the current instructions and make sure the information you enter reflects your travel plans.
Set aside time to check your application carefully before you attend. Keep your travel details consistent across the information you provide, and note any points that need checking against BLS instructions. This preparation can make it easier to decide whether a date you see is practical, rather than rushing to accept a time you cannot attend.
When the calendar has no suitable date
If the BLS booking portal does not show a date that works, check again later or use an appointment alert service to look for a match. Do not plan around an assumed release day or hour. Keep your realistic attendance dates to hand so you can assess a possible opening against your own commitments.
Use the interval to confirm your residence route, visa category and application details. The official BLS portal is where appointments are booked. An alert can help you notice a possible date, but you should assess whether it suits you before proceeding.
How appointment notifications work
The Spain Visa Alerts search starts after confirmed payment. When a matching appointment is detected, this route sends an email notification. SMS notifications are available where enabled, supported and possible, although mobile carrier delivery is not guaranteed. Notification and booking speed are not guaranteed.
A notification does not reserve or hold an appointment. Check the date and centre, then book personally through the official BLS appointment portal. Treat the alert as a prompt to check the provider's booking system, not as confirmation of an appointment.
If you reside in Surrey, build the London visit into your decision before an alert arrives: choose the dates you can realistically travel from Woking and the amount of notice you need to arrange it. Keep those limits beside your itinerary. If a notification falls outside them, do not feel obliged to book; it does not hold the appointment.
Take the next step
Before you act, confirm that London is the route for your residence and that Spain is the correct Schengen country for your itinerary. Keep your application information and possible attendance dates ready, and revisit the BLS instructions if your plans change.
If you want help looking for a matching London date, start with the Spain Visa Alerts appointment finder. Choose dates you can attend, then use any notification to check the official portal and complete your own booking.
