The Government of Spain has extended the partial closure of borders until April 30
Council Recommendation EU 2020/912, of June 30, on the temporary restriction of non-essential travel to the European Union and the possible lifting of said restriction established a list of third-party countries whose residents were exempt from travel restrictions to the European Union, as well as a set of specific categories of people also exempt from these restrictions, regardless of their place of origin: European Union Travel Restrictions and Exemptions
This Recommendation has been modified on successive occasions to gradually reduce the list of third-party countries depending on their worsening epidemiological situation.
Partial border closure until April 30
The new Order will be in effect until April 30, 2021, without prejudice to its eventual modification due to a change in circumstances or new recommendations within the European Union.
