Holidaymakers planning a trip to Spain this half-term have been warned about Covid travel restrictions that remain in place. Jacob Wedderburn-Day, CEO of luggage storage network Stasher, has issued an urgent reminder to UK travellers who have upcoming trips booked to Spain.
The popular European destination is the only country in the EU that still has COVID-19 restrictions in place for UK travellers. The rules apply to the whole of Spain, including the Canary Islands and the Balearics. The same restrictions do not apply to tourists visiting from other EU nations which could cause confusion.
Jacob said: “Tourists entering Spain from the UK will still be asked to provide proof of full vaccination, recovery from COVID-19, a negative antigen test result (taken in the 24 hours before departure) or a negative PCR test (taken in the 72 hours before departure).
