Technically, if it's valid, then it's valid for travel. However, you could meet some very overzealous Spanish official that could ask you multiple questions. But I'm sure they would let you through. Even better if you're travelling with your Spanish partner.BabaRaj wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2025 1:57 pmMe (Non EU citizen) and my Spanish partner were civil partners in Spain and I got my residence permit dependent on her for Spain valid until June 2026. We immigrated to the UK in 2022, and I have not travelled back to Spain since. As my PR has not expired, can I travel to Spain or would it cause issues? We have asked for this info from the Spanish Consulate in London and they asked us to check their website, which of course does not have such specific information
Thank you so much for your reply. How confident are you that they would let me through? My biggest concern is that they will question me and then cancel my residence in the moment. Not that I worried about my residence being cancelled but it would cause issues to my vacation.Ticktack wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2025 2:59 pmTechnically, if it's valid, then it's valid for travel.

The way around that would be to travel to Portugal or France, then travel to Spain from there. Smooth travel within the Schengen area.
Also, when you say travel to Portugal or France and then to Spain. Do you mean I should get a visa for either of these countries or can I travel there using my NIE (Tarjeta de Residencia) card?Ticktack wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2025 2:59 pmTechnically, if it's valid, then it's valid for travel.

That's why I used the word "Technically", nothing is cast in stone. The only persons guaranteed entry are Spanish citizens. Even other EU citizens can be sent back! If you don't try, you don't know. But i'll go with 65% if you asked me.Thank you so much for your reply. How confident are you that they would let me through?

You can travel to any Schengen country with your Spanish residency. Naturally, they would be more chilled as you don't live there and don't plan to. Travelling into Spain from another EU country makes it easier as you're not going through border checks anymore. It's treated as domestic travel.Also, when you say travel to Portugal or France and then to Spain.
