Ibiza tourists without accommodation could be fined €10,000
Non-EU passport holders entering Spain as tourists are required to show proof of accommodation
Tourists arriving in Ibiza without proof of accommodation could be fined up to €10,000, according to a new rule set by Spanish authorities.
Non-EU passport holders entering Spain as tourists are required to show a booking confirmation of their rental or a carta de invitación from their host, which has to be processed by local police.
The UK government also advises tourists to have a valid return or onward ticket as well as check that their passport is up-to-date.
Tourists travelling to the Spanish regions for up to 90 days could be landed with an £8,000 fine if they fail to show proof of their stay. Non-resident Spanish homeowners and guests who overstay the 90-day limit could be fined up to €10,000, The Olive Press reports.
Last year it was reported that local politicians in Ibiza were looking to introduce a ban on new holiday rentals to address the issue of soaring rents.
Regulations to curb anti-social behaviour on the Balearic Islands have been in place since 2022 with bans now being considered for drunk British tourists who break the rules.
