Latest travel advice for Spain, including how to stay safe during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and information on returning to the UK.

If you live in Great Britain and are planning to travel to Spain with your dog, cat, ferret or assistance dog, you should be aware that from 1 January 2021 the rules will be different. For your pet to travel from England, Scotland or Wales to the EU, the main changes are that you will need to use an animal health certificate (AHC) which is issued by a vet, rather than a pet passport, and you will need to enter the EU via an approved point of entry. The previous requirements under the EU Pet Travel Scheme, to ensure your pet is microchipped and vaccinated against rabies, also remain in place. If you live in Northern Ireland, however, and are travelling to the EU, there will be no change to the current requirements for pet travel from 1 January 2021.

For those of you who live in Spain, there will be no change in the current health preparations or documents for pets entering Great Britain from the Spain or the rest of the EU from 1 January 2021. If you have a pet passport issued by an EU member state, you can use it to take your pet to GB. If you’re living in Spain and plan to travel with your pet using a UK-issued pet passport, you should speak to your vet. They’ll help to ensure you’re compliant with EU Pet Travel Regulations.

If you need more help please contact the pet travel service on: [email protected] or the pet travel helpline on: 0370 241 1710. The helpline is open from Monday to Friday, between 8:30am to 5pm and is closed on bank holidays.

Following our post on this page earlier this week, Wizz Air have now informed the Government that they have cancelled their flights from Tenerife to London Luton and do not expect to start running this service until June at the earliest. British Airways, Iberia and Vueling continue to operate flights to the UK via Barcelona and Madrid. These remain the most reliable flight options and we continue to post regular updates on this page. We very much regret the further disruption customers may suffer as a result of these cancellations.

If you are in Spain and want to return to the UK, there are still several commercial options available. You may need to be flexible on the airport in the UK and if you are in the Canaries, it may mean taking flights between islands.

We are aware of rumours and misinformation circulating about the deadline for UK nationals to be registered as resident in order to be covered by the Withdrawal Agreement. Please be assured, there is no change to the rights of UK nationals to live or move to Spain during the transition period, which runs until 31 December. There are no deadlines in February or March of this year. Anyone who is legally residing in Spain by the end of this year will be covered by the Withdrawal Agreement.

The Spanish authorities are working with the European Commission to introduce a specific Foreigners’ Identity Card (Tarjeta de Identidad de Extranjero or TIE) for any UK national in Spain who has rights under the Withdrawal Agreement. This has not yet been introduced. But in the meantime we can confirm:
- If you already have the green registration certificate (whether that’s A4 or credit card-sized and whether it says “permanente” or not), this will remain a valid residency document, even after the transition period ends on 31 December.
- If you are not yet registered as a resident but obtain a residency appointment before the TIE is introduced, you will be issued with a green certificate
- Once the TIE is introduced, anyone who has a green certificate will have the right to request it
- Anyone who does not have a green residence certificate by the time the card is introduced, but who applies to register after that date and during the transition period, will be issued with the new TIE.

We will update you as soon as we have information on when and how the new card will be introduced, and the process for applying. However, there will be no deadline by which time those UK nationals already in possession of a green certificate must have a TIE, so there is no need to panic.

We are aware that in some areas there is currently limited appointment availability for those wishing to register. Do keep checking the booking system regularly as more appointments will be made available: https://sede.administracionespublicas.gob.es/icpplus/index.html
