Spain welcomes back British visitors without the need for a 14-day quarantine period when the borders are reopened. All travellers within the EU area which includes Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland, will be allowed to return to Spain.

As from Sunday, June 21st, the Spanish State Of Alarma will officially end, and the country will move into a new normality. Talks from the government of Madrid did previously agree to set a 14-day quarantine for all UK travellers as a countermeasure to the UK government requiring all international arrivals to self-isolate for 14 days.

A decision was made on Saturday evening June 20th that there will be free movement for the UK. The Spanish foreign minister, Arancha Gonzalez Laya announced to BBC News that British visitors will be allowed into Spain as the same as all EU visitors without the need for any quarantine period.

Talks with the authorities of the UK have been in progress, discussing if they were willing to waive the self-isolation period. Spain has over 400.000 British citizens that currently have a second home (holiday home) in Spain. They all wish to return to enjoy the time and benefits that the country has to offer, and they too would like to visit without restriction.

With more than 250.000 Spaniards that are currently living in the UK, the Spanish foreign minister would like for the UK authorities to show similar easing to a sensitive area and allow them to re-enter without the 14-day self-isolation period.
