HOLIDAYS SPAIN COVID. Many French people will be crossing the border this summer to reach Spain, its beaches, its sun and its culture. But what are the rules in force with the Covid-19 epidemic? We take stock.
[Updated July 1, 2022 at 3:48 p.m.] Do you want to go to Spain this summer for the holidays? Good news, the rules have been relaxed for several months. The evolution of the BA 5 variant and the new epidemic wave which has affected France since the beginning of the summer, however, calls for caution. Here are all the rules to follow for a trip to Spain.
If you arrive by car, people arriving from France are no longer required since May 19, 2022 to present the required documents: Covid-19 vaccination certificate, negative or recovery test. The same applies since June 2022 if you arrive in Spain by plane or boat. Previously, you had to present a full vaccination certificate, a negative test certificate (PCR or antigenic) or a Covid recovery certificate.
No, the presentation of your certificate attesting to a complete vaccination scheme is sufficient, provided that the vaccination was carried out 14 days or more before entering Spanish soil.
Since April 20, 2022, wearing a mask is no longer compulsory in Spain, both indoors and outdoors. However, there are a few exceptions:
Barrier gestures must be respected, in particular respect for a social distance of 1.5m.
