I don't have to be a Spanish resident to have a boat I live on that's currently in Spain!If your Spanish residents then your allowed back.
You do if you left the boat before the state of emergency was issued.I don't have to be a Spanish resident to have a boat I live on that's currently in Spain!
To be clear: you are right, those are the rules: I can't get to my home right now and my whole family is staying in the UK with some very tolerant and generous friends, but the Spanish rules don't negate the facts thatYou do if you left the boat before the state of emergency was issued.
Give it a go, BTW do you observe the 90 in 180 day rule? Or is the boat Spanish flagged ?To be clear: you are right, those are the rules: I can't get to my home right now and my whole family is staying in the UK with some very tolerant and generous friends, but the Spanish rules don't negate the facts that
a) we're not Spanish residents
b) we live on our boat
c) our boat is in Spain
Us wanting to get to our home is different from you wanting to visit a relative. The fact that people have been allowed to get to their boats in these circumstances demonstrates that the Spanish border guards agree with me rather than you!
Haven't had a chance to find out yet. We should be out of Spain and in to Portugal soon!Give it a go, BTW do you observe the 90 in 180 day rule? Or is the boat Spanish flagged ?
Try not to jump to conclusions, we haven't been in Spain long enough to require us to register!
No conclusions jumped to at all. But if you feel its your right to break a state of emergency, give it a go.Try not to jump to conclusions, we haven't been in Spain long enough to require us to register!
There *are* exceptions permitted to the closed border. If I'm allowed in by the border guards on the basis that I live on my boat, then I'm not breaking any rules at all!No conclusions jumped to at all. But if you feel its your right to break a state of emergency, give it a go.
As I've said give it a go.There *are* exceptions permitted to the closed border. If I'm allowed in by the border guards on the basis that I live on my boat, then I'm not breaking any rules at all!
dont be rediculous girl ,, this is a public forum , dont you know that sanctimonious judgementalisim and jumping to conclusions is what some people get their fun out of .Try not to jump to conclusions, we haven't been in Spain long enough to require us to register!
Whats your advice on entering Spain now to return to a yacht?dont be rediculous girl ,, this is a public forum , dont you know that sanctimonious judgementalisim and jumping to conclusions is what some people get their fun out of .
Haven't had a chance to find out yet. We should be out of Spain and in to Portugal soon!
Where in Portugal are you heading for
I would suggest soon when you get into Portugal get Portuguese residency.
Are you encouraging folk to break the law?
And what law would that be
When you arrive in Portugal, if you intend to remain for more than 3 months, it is a legal requirement to register. Failure to do so can attract an up to a €1,500 fine. When you register you will get 5 years temporary residency, which carries with it a number of important privileges.
I understand there is a similar requirement in other EU countries, including Spain but others will have better knowledge than me.
That law would be breaking the Spanish state of emergency in order to enter Portugal.
Well ask the them if they wish to break the law...Hi Clancy,
Not aware that roaringgirl said she intended to leave Spain and enter Portugal while the Spanish State of Emergency still existed so my advice still stands.
