Spain softened rules for entry of Russians

To visit the Spanish kingdom previously, it was necessary to provide COVID-certificates recognized in the EU countries. Now tourists only need to do a PCR test or an antigen test.

The Spanish government has relaxed entry rules for travelers from non-EU countries. This information was published in the official messenger on Saturday.

To enter country, it is now sufficient to present a negative PCR test for coronavirus made 72 hours before entry or an antigen test result obtained a day before the date of entry. Children under 12 are exempt from testing.

Spain, as a member of the European Union, banned Russian airlines from flying on its territory. Russia and Spain do not have direct flights. Tourists can fly to Spain with transfers via Dubai, Belgrade or Istanbul.
