The Spanish Tourist Office has issued an official statement regarding tourist rules, following a public outcry after it was reported that tourists entering the country may be required to prove they have at least £85 to spend per day.
Spanish officials stated that the rule is not new, and came into force on January 1. They also added that the requirement was not uncommon, and that it was not specific to Spain.
As reported by the Daily Record, they said that the rule applied to visitors from the majority of countries outside the EU and Schengen border-free travel area travelling inside it.
