Default UK passport - Spanish TIE - Travelling within EU?

Hi,

So I've got a UK passport (in the process of getting Spanish nationality) but I'm a permanent resident of Spain with a TIE.

Now, my question is where I fit in with travel requirements/restrictions:
- Can I travel from Barcelona to Menorca without getting a test?
- Can I travel to another country in the EU?

I'm a bit lost in finding info as I don't know if I just qualify as any other British citizen.

I appreciate any help on the topic.

Thanks!

If you are about to get Spanish nationality you should be capable of using the Spanish l government website where everything is easily available

If you are about to get Spanish nationality you should be capable of using the Spanish l government website where you can find that information. Basically, however if you are travelling in EU you just need your EU vax certificate and no other tests

In theory, it should be no problem travelling within Spain without a test, as long as you can show you've had your 2 jabs. Having said that, Covid varies from each region. The Basque country is still "red", though it doesn't stop us going to Madrid or Sevilla if we wanted.

We can also go to France; until recently we had to show proof of jabs at the frontier, but not now.

Government websites are often a minefield of info, but also difficult to wade through, especially if you don't speak Spanish.

I bet if you asked at your local bar, someone would know, daft as it might seem. Also try googling the question. Or your local police.

With a passport, TIE, and vaccination certificate, you should be treated like any other EU resident.
