Following the publication in the Spanish Official Gazette of Order INT/1159/2021, Spain decided to modify Order NT/657/2020 and thus lifted the restrictions on non-essential travel from third countries to the European Union for 20 countries, two administrative regions of China and Taiwan.
The decision is based on the fact that «the Council <of the> EU agrees to amend this Recommendation as to include Argentina, Colombia, Namibia and Peru in the list of third countries, special administrative regions and other territorial entities and authorities whose residents are not affected by the temporary restriction on non-essential travel to the EU across the external borders.»
