Spain has updated its entry requirements.
From February 14, 2022, UK children and teenagers aged between 12 and 17 can present a negative NAAT test (PCR or similar), taken within 72 hours of arrival to Spain, as an alternative to presenting a COVID certificate with proof of having been fully vaccinated.
All other UK travellers, excluding children under 12, will need to present a COVID certificate showing proof of being fully vaccinated, with both doses of a two-dose vaccine or one dose of a one-dose vaccine, administered 14 days prior to arrival in Spain. In addition, if more than 270 days have passed since the last dose was administered, proof of a booster jab is also required.
Spain?s Minister for Trade, Industry and Tourism, Reyes Maroto, said: ?As one of the world?s favourite tourism destinations, we are committed to making travel to Spain a safe and easy experience for our visitors, especially for families travelling with children. We hope that with these changes, many families will choose Spain to enjoy safe and memorable holidays together.?
Prior to travelling to Spain, all passengers must also present a QR code which is obtained from filling in the Health Control Form (FCS in Spanish) available via Spain Travel Health (SpTH). This new entry criteria is for all travellers from the UK and outside of the European Union for arrival to the whole of Spain, including the Balearic Islands and the Canary Islands.
