Spanish requirements

Border, Customs, yacht-status, insurance and maritime requirements.

External Schengen arrivals and departures

A pleasure yacht arriving from or departing to a third country should normally use an authorised maritime border crossing point. Passport, visa and border requirements depend on the route and every person aboard.

Arrivals at other marinas

A yacht coming from a third country may use a non-border port only exceptionally. The port authorities must be notified, must authorise entry and must coordinate with the nearest border crossing point, so arrange this before arrival.

Customs and temporary admission

A qualifying privately used non-Union yacht can generally remain under EU temporary admission for up to 18 months. This is an EU customs period, not a new Spain-only allowance, and eligibility depends on residence, ownership and use.

Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla

The Canary Islands are within the EU customs territory but outside the Spanish VAT area and use IGIC. Ceuta and Melilla are outside the EU customs territory and use IPSI, so routes involving these territories need separate customs review.

Maritime administration and vessel use

Private visiting yachts, professionally crewed yachts and charter or commercial yachts do not necessarily follow the same maritime-dispatch process. State the yacht's flag, use and crew status accurately so the applicable Capitania Maritima requirements can be confirmed.

Insurance and skipper qualification

Carry valid civil-liability insurance and the skipper qualification required for the flag, vessel and voyage. Charter and professional operation may involve additional Spanish requirements and should be checked in advance.

Skipper preparation

Practical points before contacting the agent.

โœ“

Arrange the request before reaching Puerto de Mogan, especially for a weekend, public holiday or late arrival.

โœ“

This is an important yacht location, but it must not be assumed to provide every border, customs or maritime formality. Confirm the reporting plan before arrival.

โœ“

Do not rely on an old fee, office time, authority sequence or radio channel without current confirmation.

โœ“

Carry clear digital copies and, where practical, printed copies of yacht, insurance, passport and crew records.

โœ“

State the yacht's flag, ownership, private or commercial use and customs position accurately.
