Travel too and from the airport.

Hi Lish - how are you both - stressed I would guess 🙁.

Im no expert, but my understanding is you should be ok driving to Arboleas from airport as you are going to your main residence (obviously have all your paperwork with you). 

However, I thought you still needed your TIE to actually get into Spain. This of course may have changed by mid March.

Im sure someone will correct me if I am wrong. 

As always good luck with everything.

Hi Lish, 

Zoe is right. If you have your TIE you will be fine because you are travelling to your home. 

But Spain is not allowing anyone into the country unless they have TIE, whether they live here or not. 

Neighbours of ours, who live here permanently and have started the process of getting TIE, went to the UK at Christmas and have been unable to come home. They have been approved for TIE but haven't done fingerprints yet. The family is stranded in the UK until the rules change. 

If you have your TIE you will be fine, otherwise you will not be able to enter Spain, unless the rules change before you travel. 

Good luck. 

Thanks for this information,  I contacted my solicitor about this and he is saying that I am able to travel as a tourist only until I have my tie so now I'm getting confused.

Appreciate your comments.

Regards

Lish

Hi Lish,

I really hope the situation changes before you are due to make the move because Spain isn't allowing tourists into the country at the moment. People who have holiday homes here can't come to them. 

It's impossible to get your TIE unless you are physically here in Spain, so as it stands at the moment you are unable to enter the country.

It will change at some point but maybe not before you are expecting to move. I wish you all the best.

Thanks once again, we are actually just coming over with our furniture , I think I need to contact the authorities to get clarification on this 

Cheers Lish 

That's best then you know exactly what's what.

I had to contact them myself about travel, this is the email address I used:

[email protected]

If that isn't the right department for you they will give you the correct email address. I hope this is some help.

Thank you very much for your help, we di appreciate all the advice we are getting its just so frustrating that we can't get over to our beautiful villa. 

Cheers Lish 

Hi Lisher

It might be worth while checking out the avenue of travelling for business. 

Only problem is when will we be able to fly?  My friend had had to change several flights due to cancellations.

Good Luck
