As we informed from November 23rd, 2020, all passengers who come from a high-risk country/area in relation to SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, must present, in order to enter Spain, a certificate with a NEGATIVE PCR result (COVID-19 RT-PCR), carried out in the 72 hours before arrival.
Now, from December 10th, 2020, TMA (Transcription-Mediated Amplification test) has been incorporated as an accepted diagnostic test in addition to PCR.
Also, from this date, children under 6 years old are exempt from the diagnostic tests for active infection with SARS-CoV-2, in order to enter Spain.
