To enter Spain, any non-EU travellers - which includes the UK - need to have an EU approved vaccine.

This includes the Pfizer jabs as well as Moderna, Astrazeneca, Johnson & Johnson and Novavax.

However, from tomorrow, this is no longer the case, with vaccines only needing to be approved by WHO to enter Spain from March 1, according to the .

This will include the Chinese made Sinopharm and Sinovac and India's Bharat Biotech.

Brits still need to be vaccinated to enter Spain, as the country has banned any arrivals who are yet to have both jabs.

Arrivals also need to have a Spanish passenger form filled, which is free via the government website although some sites are charging as much as €60.

Anyone who has had their second jab more than nine months ago will have to have their booster to be deemed fully vaccinated.

The country has lifted a number of other Covid restrictions in recent weeks.

Spain scrapped its strict Covid rule banning unvaccinated teens aged between 12 and 17.

Instead, kids under 18 who haven't had both of their jabs will just have to have a negative PCR test taken 72 hours before arrival.
