Spain relaxes entry rules for individuals traveling from outside of the European Union and Schengen Area

Effective October 22, individuals who travel to Spain from outside of the European Union (EU) and Schengen Area are no longer required to provide proof that they are vaccinated against, recovered from, or tested negative for, COVID-19, to be admitted. The new rule applies both to nationals of EU and European Economic Area (EEA) Member States, and nationals of countries located outside of the EU and EEA (i.e., third-country nationals).  The recent measures adopted by the Spanish government reflect the evolving nature of the pandemic and are expected to facilitate the entry of foreign nationals to Spain.
