Spain has introduced new travel rules, including stricter entry requirements, short-term rental regulations, and higher tourist taxes. Visitors now need a passport valid for three months post-departure, travel insurance, proof of funds, and accommodation details. Airbnb-style rentals require registration, guest data collection, and may face VAT hikes. Some cities, like Barcelona, plan to phase out short-term rentals by 2028. Tourist taxes are rising across Spain, with Barcelona doubling its fees by 2025 and other regions increasing charges for peak-season stays.
