the article says:

Spain has announced new restrictions on UK tourists entering the country. They now need to possess proof of a return or onward ticket, enough money for their stay, and evidence they have somewhere to stay in Spain.

But it could just mean countries without the right to free movement. It is the Express so its going to be written in an anti-EU slant

Showing a bank statement with a couple of grand in it for a 2week holiday isn’t difficult is it? In this country one needs to be able to prove to immigration you have funds to last the duration of your stay too.

. However this is unlikely to make any difference to anyone. All you need do is show a copy of a bank statement or a, credit card with funds available . If you can afford to travel to Spain you will be able to show proof of funds available.

Is this specific to UK visitors or any non EU visitors. I usually go all inclusive package deal. As that provides everything do I still need to prove the £85 per day.

Spoiler: only 15% of Spanish Tourism comes from the UK

This is pretty standard practice and something we require from a lot of people coming here. This was actually announced ages ago and we have been to Spain since this has been in place. If you actually read it says you can be asked for proof but most people won't be. You just need a credit card or money in the bank and let's be honest most people make sure they have sufficient funds when they a one holiday anyway. It is a non story.

No I don't think you will find they will because they are making sure people can fund themselves while they are in their country(as do many countries) and obviously have money to spend in said country. Absolutely pointless having tourists the don't spend anything!

The title of this is very misleading and not correct. You do not have to spend £85 a day in Spain you just need to prove that you have £85 a days worth of funds so a very big difference from the OP has implied.

This has always been the case in Spain for non EU countries, We are now a non Eu country so we have to abide by the same rules as all the others.

You can be asked yes although a credit card would suffice. We have been to Spain since this was introduced, We or nobody around us were asked for proof but they can ask. We also require people from many countries to prove they have sufficient funds before entering. You just have to be able to prove you can support yourself while in their country.

Nobody was asked for proof at passport control when we went a couple of weeks ago. It very clearly States when you look into this that you can be asked so should be prepared to provide proof.

I see, so if you don’t have online backing you need to take a printed bank or credit card statement, passports checks already take longer, this will just add extra waiting

Read what it says on the Spanish government website. You may be asked, when you enter this country but the vast majority of people aren't. It is normally if there is suspicion That you are not there for the purposes you say are. Most passengers will not be required to show proof. It's just an enhanced check they can now carry out if they wish to.

All countries can ask you to prove you have sufficient funds. As for this nonsense it's not in full effect till September, It was actually in full of fact from January this year. All the information is available on this countries and on Spain's government website. In France it is currently a £120 a day, again has been in effect since January but very few people are asked.

yes they currently resrve the right. but they have also stated that it is unenforcable until september when the EU rolls out full biometric checks at ALL points of entry. The Entry/Exit System (EES) will be an automated IT system for registering travellers from third-countries, both short-stay visa holders and visa exempt travellers, each time they cross an EU external border. The system will register the person's name, type of the travel document, biometric data (fingerprints and captured facial images) and the date and place of entry and exit, in full respect of fundamental rights and data protection.

It will also record refusals of entry. EES will replace the current system of manual stamping of passports, which is time consuming, does not provide reliable data on border crossings and does not allow a systematic detection of over-stayers (travellers who have exceeded the maximum duration of their authorised stay).

EES will contribute to prevent irregular migration and help protect the security of European citizens. The new system will also help bona fide third-country nationals to travel more easily while also identifying more efficiently over-stayers as well as cases of document and identity fraud. In addition to this, the system will enable to make a wider use of automated border control checks and self-service systems, which are quicker and more comfortable for the traveller.

when the system becomes fully operational it will also be able to automatically refuse entry to anyone with a criminal record.

Please stop as you are spreading false information! because again this is not true. As with most countries certain criminal offences will bar you from entering the country. It is not the same as anyone who has a criminal record Will automatically be refused entry. I would advise anybody travelling to any country to check be requirements before booking a holiday or a trip. I will just say this one last time nothing will change in September in relation to you being asked to prove your financial situation, It will stay exactly the same as it is now.

I'm not an immigration expert however I am married to a Spanish citizen! I have taken the information off the Spanish government website you have not. You have cherry picked the information that suits your argument. Can you please direct me to the part of the Spanish government website but says you will automatically be barred from entering the country if you have a criminal record? Because it doesn't actually say that.

"HOLIDAYMAKERS heading to Spain may be forced to prove they have sufficient funds of more than £85 per day to cover their stay, it has been confirmed.

Another Brexit WIN ! ! !does it only apply to British or any holidaymaker

All third state nations.

How we have fallen eh..

Right up there with Japan, Canada, USA, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand etc.

At least no visa required … silver lining and all that …

You will need a visa from next year. "

If you are referring to the European Travel Information and Authorization System, ETIAS is not a Visa

Most countries have entry requirements including to prove you have the finances to Support yourself whilst in that country. Spains is fairly low compared to say France where its £120 a day. This does not however mean everyone will be asked to show proof.

I say it again, things are never the same after a divorce, we must respect Spain has boundaries now and we must not expect the same relationship now.

Where Spain was the European pariah during the Franco years, we must accept that the dynamics have changed and good or bad we are going to live with it for many years to come.

It’s our behaviour now which counts, are we amicable now, or do we become the bad divorcee?

"Fine, simple solution Brits stop going to Spain on holiday.

I can categorically state now that Spain will drop this like a lead balloon when they loose hundreds of millions every year in lost revenue from British holidaymakers.

the UK only makes up 15% of Spanish tourism revenue.

I think they will survive without us."

Its actually more like 24%. Plus even if it was 'only' the 15% you stated that's still a massive percentage. If you suddenly lost 15% of an industry it's going to have a big impact. Also as other people have posted this new requirement won't actually make any difference. You can be asked to show you have sufficient funds for travel in any country you visit

This is not unique to Spain. Spain is adhering to an EU requirement that arrivals from third countries can prove that they can support themselves.

It may surprise some of the outraged that the U.K. Border Force also require ALL arrivals in the U.K. to similarly provide proof of funds.

We should feel fortunate I suppose that for now the French are not pressing this requirement in their border in Dover. If they did, the current tailbacks would be much, much worse than what we are already witnessing.

Uk tourists spend the most amount of money, followed by Germany and France.

Money spent in Spain by UK tourists 5 billion.

I would imagine, this rule will not be in place for tour operator travellers, and will be used for travellers who have no onward address in Spain.

Basic stuff that is in place all over the world.

Whether it was introduced in January as will only be enforced in September….

This what happens when you leave the EU and become a Third State Nation.

Suck it up Brexiteers ….

It’s another win for Brexit.

There are plenty more Brexit gold medal opportunities on their way….
