Spain holidays: Britons face hefty £5K fine if they arrive without covid-free certificate

The new coronavirus-free certificate can be shown in paper or electronic form, in its original form and written in Spanish and/or English and is part of a detailed heath questionnaire everyone has to fill in before entering the country.

The document must contain the traveller’s name, passport number or the national identity document or letter (which must coincide with the one used in the Health Control Form), the date of the test, identification and contact details of the centre the test was performed at, the technique used and the negative result of the test.

The only test that is accepted is a PCR test with temperatures and visual health checks taking place at airports and ports.

The Spanish government has confirmed anyone arriving without a covid-free certificate will also be required to take a test in Spain or could be refused entry.
