Spain reopens to travellers from the UK

 Tuesday, May 25, 2021 

Spain has finally reopened to welcome from the UK who are now allowed to enjoy a holiday in the country. Travellers from the UK are not required to present a negative COVID-19 test, as long as they have remained in the country for the past 14 days. Similar conditions are also applicable to Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Israel, South Korea, Thailand, Rwanda, China and Japan, as the country seeks to restart its tourism sector.

However, it is compulsory to fill the Health Control Form on arrival for all travellers entering Spain from the United Kingdom. Meanwhile, Spain continues to remain on the amber list for travellers from England, meaning all visitors would be tested on departure and return, and required to isolate for ten days after a trip. Earlier, Spanish President Pedro Sánchez mentioned that Spanish borders would open further next month.

He confirmed, as of June 7, tourists from countries with which there is not full freedom of movement may enter Spain provided they have a certificate showing they have completed the full vaccination schedule authorised by the European Medicines Agency or the World Health Organisation. The United States is expected to be a beneficiary of the change.
