Hi Scots Lass,

Sorry to hear of your plight - especially as it's happened on the weekend.  While it is annoying for you that your vaccination record isn't up to date, Sue's advice, to obtain a negative test result, does seem to be the most sensible way forward.  This extract from Gov.UK says that your...

Testing and vaccination requirements for arrivals from the UK

The Spanish government requires all arrivals to Spain from the UK (excluding children under the age of 12 years old) to present on entry one of the following:

documentation certifying that you have undertaken a COVID-19 nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT - e.g. PCR, TMA, LAMP or NEAR) within 72 hours prior to arrival in Spain and tested negative. Antigen tests can only be used in certain limited circumstances (as outlined in section ‘k’ of the ‘Entry requirements for entry in Spain from third countries’ on the Spanish Ministry of Health ‘Travel and COVID-19’ page) and are not accepted if you are travelling from the UK to Spain for tourism purposes (see Reason for travel to Spain below for further information).

proof of being fully vaccinated at least 14 days prior to arrival in Spain (date(s) of vaccination must be specified), with a vaccine authorised by the European Medicines Agency or by the World Health Organisation. Spain will accept the UK’s solutions to demonstrate your COVID vaccination status. Your NHS appointment card from vaccination centres is not designed to be used as proof of vaccination and should not be used to demonstrate your vaccine status.

Good luck!

Kind regards,

Hi Hevs, that's very useful to know as by the time I return my App should be up to date.   I was just worried whether they checked it on the way out.

GOOD NEWS EVERYONE - I HAVE MY UPDATED FULLY VACCINATED RECORD.  

So I might not need it, according to some of the comments above, however, I am feeling so much happier (feeling tearful in fact) that all my paperwork is as required and I can relax now and enjoy my holiday.

Still got the return paperwork to complete and Antigen etc to organise for the return though, but with all the info I have picked up on this site, I know exactly where to go for my test in El Campello and what paperwork I need to complete for the return journey.

Thanks everyone xx
