It depends on your nationality and the duration of your studies. Citizens of the European Union (EU), European Economic Area (EEA), and certain other countries do not need a visa for short-term stays (up to 90 days). However, for longer-term studies, most international students will need to apply for a student visa.

• International students planning to study in Estonia for longer than 90 days typically need to apply for a long-stay visa (Type D) or a residence permit for study purposes.

To apply for a student visa, you'll need to submit a visa application to the Estonian consulate or embassy in your home country or country of residence. You'll need to provide supporting documents, such as a letter of admission from an Estonian educational institution, proof of sufficient funds, and a valid passport.

• Common documents required for a student visa application may include: • Completed visa application form. • Passport valid for at least three months beyond the intended stay. • Letter of admission from an Estonian educational institution. • Proof of sufficient funds to cover living expenses. • Health insurance covering medical expenses and repatriation. • Passport-sized photos meeting specifications. • Other documents as requested by the Estonian consulate or embassy.
