Spain visa for Nauru passport holders

Before you travel, check what the official route asks for. Which route is open to you depends on your passport and your situation.

Apply for a short-stay visa before travelling. Nauru is listed for a future EU visa exemption, but it applies only once an EU–Nauru visa-waiver agreement enters into force. No such agreement is in force, so a visa is required. The maximum short-stay allowance is 90 days in any 180-day period across Schengen, but the visa may grant less and approval is not guaranteed.

ETIAS is not operational and is not accepting applications. EES records eligible travellers at the border; it is not an advance arrival form.

Spanish consular entry guidance lists round-trip/return tickets among border documents 'in all cases' for ordinary third-country short-stay visitors. Officers may request the documents. EU/EEA/Swiss free-movement travellers have separate rules.

Standard Schengen visa applicants need compliant medical insurance for the whole stay. Insurance is recommended for visa-exempt tourists; a general compulsory requirement for that group has not been confirmed from the Spanish entry guidance. Check any conditions for your own visa or circumstances.

These conditions are for a regular tourist visit. Where you live, your visa status and the route you take can change what applies to you.

• Short stays share a limit of 90 days in any rolling 180-day period across the Schengen area. Your visa or permission can allow less; this is not 90 days in each country.
• For ordinary third-country visitors, the passport generally must have been issued within 10 years and remain valid at least 3 months after planned Schengen departure.
• Border officials may request accommodation, funds and evidence of the purpose of your visit. Residence permits and qualifying EU/EEA family relationships can change the rules.
