But your last booster needs to be within 270 days of travelling. So if your booster was in November 2021 it may be more than 270 days (nine months) of travelling.

if There is no time limit of 270 days on the booster. The 270 days only applies to the first two jabs. You can enter Spain, if over 270 days after 2nd jab, by either having the booster, taking an antigen test 24 hours before time of flight out to Spain (you can’t use the free NHS ones as the test needs to be uploaded to a company who will issue a certificate for travel with a negative result OR with a recovery certificate (not sure if these are still issued by NHS. recovery certs were only issued and shown on the NHS app after registering a positive PCR test ie the tests where you had to attend a testing centre). If entering by test you also need to fill in the SPTh form If you've had your booster then nothing is required whether you’ve had the virus or not. Just go and enjoy your time away.
if you need a test use this company and ive also added the link to the spanish health form

Hi,
Jackie is correct, at present you only need to have had the initial covid vaccinations plus one booster vaccination.
The attached from the EU Schengen site outlines the details, for Spain and all EU countries. Spain is one of only three countries in the EU to still have any covid entry restrictions!

No problem. There’s still a lot of misinterpretation of the rules Spain still has in place but if you’ve had 3/3 then your good to go with no testing, no recovery certificates and no forms. Happy holiday!! ☀️ 🏖 cocktail

I believe the next entry review is scheduled for around 15 September. Too late for me as i travel on 13th so all prepared with tests purchased.
