Bringing a pet to Spain: import rules

Madrid and Barcelona anchor most Spain-bound pet relocations, with Valencia and the southern coast picking up retiree and remote-worker traffic. The EU pet travel scheme applies. The route from rabies-controlled origins like Indonesia requires the rabies titer wait. Spain's arrival handling at Madrid-Barajas is straightforward when documentation is sequenced correctly.
