Spain Tightens Covid Entry Rules for Moroccan Travelers, Requiring Health Certificates
Spain requires border workers and other Schengen visa holders traveling from Morocco to have a certificate of vaccination against Covid-19 or a certificate of recovery or a negative PCR test.
The measure, published this Thursday in the Official State Gazette (BOE), amends the order of July 17, 2020 setting the criteria for applying the temporary restriction of non-essential travel from third countries to the European Union and the Schengen area for reasons of public order and public health related to the Covid-19 health crisis.
Thus, any third-country national coming from Morocco, except those meeting the conditions for travel in the Schengen area and border workers with a valid foreign identity card or a specific visa for Ceuta or Melilla, will be able to enter Spanish territory.
The measure will remain in force until November 15 at 12:00 pm, subject to any changes related to a change in the situation or new recommendations from the European Union.
