Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

As previously stated by not only me, while it may effect people on this forum, the amount it effects in the UK is negligible. Rightly or wrongly FOM by many people is seen as inward and bad.

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

Totally agree. FOM might be high on the agenda of people on this forum. But back in the UK worrying about their loss of FOM is pretty much a non issue.

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

Of course it isn't, i understand that. But the amount of people who exercised FOM, or even cared about moving to the EU is small. And, rightly or wrongly FOM inward is seen as a negative thing by...

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

How does it? What does that have to do with UK or EU citizens being treated at borders?

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

Very admirable. but you didn't answer my question about why UK citizens at the EU border isn't the UK's concern. And about whinging. nearly every other post you make on here is either whinging about...

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

What you seem to be saying, perhaps I am wrong, is that How a UK citizen is treated at the EU border is none of the UK's concern? I assure you it is. Just as how an EU citizen is treated at the UK...

Agreed, luckily for me, I have an Irish passport, but most people have done what they had to do, to get where they want to get.
Not sure about numbers, but i saw on Statista website, UK visitors...

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

As of 2021 there were 3.4M EU nationals living in the UK, I am sure parents, grandparents, etc would quite often take an extended holiday in the UK to visit their families.

Perhaps that's something that should change them, more border staff, needs a serious investment and restructuring

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

The relevance is that rules are not reciprocated. Personally I think the UK should change the law for EU nationals to reciprocate the EU system of 90/180
Should have been agreed in any withdrawal...

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

While being correct, Spain's Extranjera system is seriously not fit for purpose within those rules. I came here in Nov last year, as an EU citizen, i tried from December to get an appointment for...

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

They don't even stamp passports in or out, so how can they effectively enforce that rule? 180 days per visit or 180/360 is far more than the EU gives UK citizens though isn't it?

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

I find it hard to believe the UK are being strict about applying rules for EU nationals, and don't forget, EU nationals get 180/360 in the UK as apposed to 90/180

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

What? If i understand you correctly, UK tourism added 17.16 billion Euros to Spain's economy in 2022 according to Statista, no idea about GDP (Look yourself) but its a lot of money

Who knows, maybe they will when the ETA system is up and running, and for now they are prepared to look the other way. Tine will tell

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

I would think its doubtful the EU are unaware. I am sure i read somewhere (could be wrong) Spain wanted to change the rules for UK visitors to 180/360, but the EU wouldn't allow it? Maybe its just a...

Re: Spain has not expelled any Brits!

At a pure guess, maybe Spain has taken the choice to be "flexible" when checking UK citizens 90/180 travel as they fear it could hurt the tourism economy, with not just second home owners spending...
