COVID Ruled for Road Travel Between Spain and Portugal

[WestCountry]

Hi all, we are currently touring Spain in our motorhome and we would also like to dip into Portugal and back into Spain for the return ferry. The rules for arriving into Portugal by air are quite clear but Internet searches on current COVID requirements for a UK Nationals crossing a land border has produced conflicting results on vaccination/test requirements. The Portuguese passenger locator forms seem to be specific for arrival by air and all fields in the form are mandatory which we can’t comply with as we don’t have an airline/flight number etc. Is there anyone who has had recent experience (after 7th Feb 2022 change of rules) of driving into Portugal from Spain and back into Spain again or someone who is able to provide some clarity please. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Unless they have changed, the rules for travelling by land from Spain to Portugal changed (relaxed) on Feb. 1st.

You may now drive across the border with no restrictions or record of your travel plans.

I say this with some authority as this what we did after doing enquiries when we were in Spain.

Thanks very much for that information Emmit. Regards, Tim
