Type D student visa in Spain: valid date and duration of stay
I'm Chinese citizen and I have a Type D student visa valid for Spain. It was originally issued to be valid from Nov. 1, 2014 to Apr. 24, 2015, and the duration of stay is 160 days. Which of these takes precedence? The thing is that I caught up in some personal thing and did not go to Spain until January, 2015.
If I stay the full "duration of stay" time dictated by my visa, which is 160 days, I will leave in June, but that's past the visa valid date range. Can I (or do I need to) do anything about it in Spain? If I need to do something about it, I do not need to extend the length of the duration of stay, only the valid date range. I heard visa valid date only means when you can enter the country, is that the case for Spain?
