Officials in Spain have confirmed travelers will require evidence of a negative PCR test or a complete vaccine programme when arriving from the United Kingdom.

The country becomes the latest to tighten requirements for British travelers, following moves by Portugal and Malta.

Spanish prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, said, while the country looks forward to welcoming British holidaymakers, data coming from the United Kingdom shows concerning infection rates.

The measure is expected to come into effect on July 2nd.

This new legislation is for arrivals for the whole of Spain, including the Balearic Islands and the Canary Islands.

However, while most of Spain remains on the amber list for UK travelers, the Balearic Islands have been added to the green list.
