Hi,

Has anyone been in Spain with a UK Travel document after Brexit?

I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Hi Mo,

i have been trying to find the answer for this question for too long but with no success. it is very difficult to get the answer online or by calling the embassy so its basically its trial and error however i can tell you this,

you can travel to Romania, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Croatia, Bosnia and Montenegro without a visa for sure

https://www.iatatravelcentre.com/passpo ... ements.htm

after the 30 June, the EU published a document giving each state to decide on weather to request visas from UK travel documents in the below document page 12, section 2.5, its very tricky to say for sure

https://ec.europa.eu/info/sites/default ... g_en_3.pdf

however, i have a friend who flew yesterday to the Netherlands with a travel document and was allowed in without visa and another one to Germany. me myself i am planning to go to Portugal in a week and see what happens and hopefully to Spain after that.

Thanks for your replay,

There is no clear rule regarding that, basically, it should affect on Travel document and according to EU documents we don't need a visa, But Their embassy they don't answer .
I sent emails to few embassies but JUST ONE OF them GOT BACK TO ME AND SAID VISA needed.

As you said you need to go and check that.

I have the plan to go to Spain and booked the thicket and I was thinking I can get a visa to make sure but even they don't have an available slot for visas.

I checked the rest of them as well and they don't have any available slot.
I would certainly say Asian embassies are much better than EU embassies.

But I know of my friend who went to Germany and France and Italy and they didn't ask him for a visa.

Could you please update here if you manage to go any of those without Visa

Is there any update on this ?

I am trying to travel to France in October and so far keep getting an error message that does not allow me to submit the application so I thought maybe it is because a visa is not needed. I hold a Refugee travel document and I am Yemeni.

Thank you for any update
