Spain has eased Covid travel restrictions for unvaccinated holidaymakers from today.
Previously, only travellers that were considered to be fully vaccinated against Covid were allowed to enter the country for tourism purposes.
The Spanish government has announced that unvaccinated or partially vaccinated tourists can now enter Spain in an immediate change to the rules.
People who fall under these categories must show evidence of a negative PCR test (taken 72 hours before travel) or a negative antigen test (taken 24 hours before travel) for entry.
Unvaccinated and partially vaccinated holidaymakers can also show evidence that they have recovered from Covid within the last 180 days and at least 11 days before travel.
Children under the age of 12 are exempt from the rules when travelling with adults.
It was also announced that fully vaccinated passengers are no longer required to fill in a Health Control Form - which is their equivalent of a passenger locator form - before travel.
Partially vaccinated and unvaccinated people will still be required to complete the form prior to jetting off to Spain.
News of the easing of restrictions in Spain will be welcome to those seeking to travel over to the tourist hotspot through the Easter holidays.
It has become easier for Scots holidaymakers in recent weeks to arrive back into Scotland following a trip abroad.
The Scottish Government brought an end to all testing requirements, while passenger locator forms were scrapped last month.
A number of other countries abroad are now lifting Covid travel measures as recovery following the pandemic continues.
Yesterday it was announced that unvaccinated people will once again be allowed to travel from the UK to Malta from next Monday.
