EU foreigners do not need a visa to enter Spain, but just a passport or an official ID in force. Non-EU foreigners, on the other hand, do need a visa to enter Spain, except if there exists an agreement between Spain and the foreign home country, by means of which the requirement of a visa is eliminated for citizens or residents of such countries when they will be staying in Spain for up to 3 months within a 6 month period, or for a transit stay of maximum 5 days.

You may apply for a visa to the Spanish Consulate located in your home country before you leave, visas are handled by the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs through its consulate abroad.

There are different types of visas, which are issued depending on what is your purpose for entering Spain: studying, working, tourism, investment …. You should apply for your visa according to your needs, you cannot enter Spain on a tourist visa and then apply to stay as something else without returning to your home country and obtaining the appropriate visa first.

You should be required to produce some specific documentation, depending on the type of visa you need. Visas-process will take some weeks depending on each case.
