EXPATS AGREEEMNT FOR RESIDENCY . If you are a UK national thinking to visit Spain and you have not the TIE/Green card ("Spanish residency"), you should check that that your passport meets the entry requirements for Spain according to the Schengen area rules. If you are living in Spain and you have not managed to obtain your TIE, we can help you with the application.

*Info on passport validity for UK visitors to Spain*

If you have friends and family from the UK coming to visit you in Spain, do make sure that they are aware of the rules on passport validity. Visitors from the UK must meet the Schengen area rules (https://ec.europa.eu/home-affairs/policies/schengen-borders-and-visa/schengen-area_en.)

Passports must meet 2 requirements. They must be:
• less than 10 years old on the day you enter (check the ‘date of issue’)
• valid for at least 3 months after the day you plan to leave (check the ‘expiry date’)
People should check both the issue date and the expiry date in their passport. If you renewed your passport early, extra months may have been added to its expiry date and could affect the requirement for your passport to be less than 10 years old. You can find more information on all the entry requirements for Spain at https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/spain/entry-requirements

If you are a UK National living in Spain and covered by the Withdrawal Agreement, you do not need any extra months on your passport to enter or exit EU countries.
