CeeJay Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Fancy a quick day trip down to La Perthus on the Spanish border to do some cheapo shopping. Bit confused as to what the rules are for crossing over to Spain from France, have had both jabs but do I also need a PCR test?Grateful for info.

pomme Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 I assume you meant Day trip to Spain?Some of the requirements are specific to different Spanish regionsYou need to think about the requirements in both directions. This page gives all the relevant restrictions/recommendations and requirementshttps://es.ambafrance.org/Covid-19-a-savoir-pour-tout-deplacement-entre-la-France-et-l-EspagneIt is not clear whether you can use the same test for both directions?

nomoss Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Just thought I'd correct the title [:)]And quote : "Il est fortement déconseillé de se rendre en Espagne depuis la France pour tourisme ou des activités de loisirs" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomoss Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 The official EU site is usually up-to-date and reliable[url]https://reopen.europa.eu/en[/url]We went to Leucate yesterday and found the roads very busy and traffic slow, getting worse as we neared the sea.

Bit confused as to what the rules are for crossing over to Spain from France, have had both jabs but do I also need a PCR test? Grateful for info. I live close to the frontier (Dancharia) Granted it is on the opposite side of the Pyrenees to La Perthus but crossing into (and back) Spain has been without any checks now for a couple of weeks. Even when there were checks it wasn't a problem if you were local to the frontier (within the 10K distance). If you had come a long distance to the frontier then a test certificate was required but even that is no longer necessary. Enjoy your shopping.
