The Canary Islands has scrapped the obligation of national travellers from mainland Spain to present a negative test result (PDIA) when coming to the archipelago, a measure that was in place from December 18th until after Easter to cover periods of high mobility to contain the transmission of the coronavirus. This measure will not affect international travellers who will have to continue presenting a negative PCR test to enter the islands.
Previously when a national passenger or foreign resident arrived in the Archipelago from another region of Spain, they had to present a negative PDIA certificate at the checkpoints established by the Ministry of Health at airports and ports.
Travellers who did not present the certificate, were identified, registered and ordered to perform isolation until a negative result of a diagnostic test at destination was obtained.
