Notes
- Local animal-disease outbreaks can bring extra restrictions.
- Official sources disagree. The Agencia Tributaria page lists Gran Bretaña among the origins exempt from the restrictions, while the Commission's traveller poster says arrivals from England, Wales and Scotland face normal veterinary controls.
- Fish must be eviscerated, or prepared or processed. The limit is 20 kg or the weight of one fish, whichever is higher.
