FYI, saw this on N332 page : Update to entry requirements for visitors to Spain from the UK*

If you are coming to visit Spain from the UK, there has been a change to the documentation you need to provide. If you have a digital COVID certificate, you no longer need to complete Spain's travel health form. Children under 12 do not need to complete the travel health form either. 

Other requirements remain in place. If you are travelling to Spain for tourism, you must show proof of either:

- being fully vaccinated (with both doses of a 2-dose vaccine or one dose of a single-dose vaccine). Your final dose must have been administered within 270 days prior to travel to Spain or you must be able to show evidence of having had a booster jab

- having recovered from COVID-19 within the last six months

For further detail see https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/spain/entry-requirements

Thanks Dario, that is great news indeed.

Returning to VDE at the end of April, so will now not have to worry about completing that Spanish passenger locator form, which was a nightmare to navigate.

Hi can anyone confirm what a digital COVID certificate is.In Uk is it just the proof of vaccination you get off nhs app.

Friends have just returned and had this but were still asked for Spanish locator form

Has anyone actually been without locator form.

Thanks Paul

Digital Covid certificate will be the one that bears the QR code that can be scanned and shows all vaccinations
