Tests for Spanish Travel?

[EuroTrotters]

Hi,

Looking at the system for Necessary travel to Spain.

It is £80-£165 for a PCR to enter Spain.

Coming back, it’s the 2 - 8 day test pre-booked at £198

What test is required when We leave Spain and approximate cost please ?.

Are you travelling by air or road?

The Uk doesn't appear to be on this list requiring pcr test before entry from 15thMarch until midnight tonight?

The form doesn't have to be filled in if arriving by roador train.

Pcr if travelling in to France + all there required paperwork.By Boat the cheap one is ok according to those who have used & are going to use it shortly.

either pcr or lateral flow appears to be acceptable for entering uk.
so it says here.https://www.gov.uk/guidance/coronavirus-covid-19-testing-for-people-travelling-to-england

Thanks.

Are you travelling by air or road?

by air, probably next Saturday from Manchester - Alicante

having moved Brittany ferries 9 times.

I have a time critical meeting with lawyers and Notary. I also have to physically visit my bank to unlock my account.


Looking at the government websites. It seems that may not be classed as reasonable reasons to travel.

Other permitted reasons​

There are further reasonable excuses, for example:

• to fulfil legal obligations
• to carry out activities related to buying, selling, letting or renting a residential property
• travel in order to exercise custody rights
• order to present oneself to a judicial or administrative authority

Recommended evidence: proof of contract, court decision and proof of place of residence, order to present oneself to a judicial or administrative authority, expiring residence permit, dismissal notice, letter or appointment details from estate agent, relevant contract or letters detailing sales, or other appropriate documentation.

Do you fall in the above? If so and can provide the evidence you should be OK. The legal obligations would appear to be a broad reason.

Is that reasons to leave or reasons to enter ?

That is to leave the UK avoiding the £5000 fine.
