Can I work with a student visa in spain?

Can I work with a student visa in spain?
I know people might so "NO YOU CANT BECAUSE ITS A STUDENT VISA" But I used to live in Japan for several years and on a student visa and I was able to work 20 hours per week but I had to get "special permission" from the government. On this paper I have about spain it says You cannot Work with a student visa, But Im not planning on Working full time, just part time like in Japan where it was possible but stated the same thing that you cannot work. but actually you could legally work part time, but isnt spain the same? everyone keeps on exagerating about how strict it is, and Im pretty sure JAPAN is the most strictest country in the world in terms of Immigrants and Iw as able to do it and many other things.

I don't believe so...because it's a student visa IN SPAIN. But that might, also, depend on what country you are from. You don't say.

don't ask people on here. its not professional help. i would suggest you call the number on the piece of paper where it says that you cannot work in spain.. theres got to be a number of someone you can talk to who would know these things.. i would love to know this because i want to go to spain and would love to stay longer and work there..

If you are in Spain under the terms of a student visa you can apply for permission to work here -called 'Autorización Excepcional de Trabajo' - but type of work, and how often you can do it is closely regulated.
