Traveling record

Make it easy for a family member or friend trip data you are going to perform, including the dates and places of residence and register in the Register of Travelers.

Medical and travel insurance

Many people regret not having signed a medical insurance before your trip when you have to deal with a medical emergency abroad. Since the costs of hospitalization and medical treatment in most countries have to be borne by the patient and can become very large, highly purchase health insurance you have full coverage in case of illness or accident during recommended the journey, including evacuation radicalized aircraft.

For example, the transfer of a patient in radicalized aircraft from the United States may have a cost around 50,000 euros. The trip back to Spain from a patient on a stretcher on a scheduled flight accompanied by a physician can cost around 20,000 euros.

If you visit several countries during your trip, make sure your insurance is covered throughout, even on the scales and short stays.

It confirms that the insurance contract covers all the activities that go to make during the trip, including those considered at risk as diving, paragliding and kite-surfing. In addition, activities related to the world of motor (rallies, raids, driving jet skis and snow, canopy, etc.) often require specific coverage.

Also consider if you're going to do some sport or high risk activity (climbing, caving, caving-diving, etc.), your insurance coverage should expressly include the conduct of this activity abroad and be sufficient to meet everything related to the rescue, medical evacuation or transfer of remains. When an accident occurs abroad, competition in rescue and civil protection lies with the local authorities, whose legislation, protocols and media cannot be similar to those available in Spain. Embassies and Consulates do not have the resources to cope or guarantee costs in case of accident or can secure a better than nationals of the country in which you find treatment.

If you're going to drive around abroad it is advisable to consult first travel recommendations for your destination country and you go provided with accident insurance and liability.

In general, health care abroad is not covered by the Spanish Social Security or by private health insurance in Spain and by the policy that subscribes to buy a ticket with a credit card.

The European Health Insurance Card allows the holder access to national health systems in the European Economic Area and Switzerland under the same conditions as nationals of those countries. Therefore, if the public system is co payment or refund, you will be served in this way.

Furthermore, it is also convenient to hire a travel insurance that covers these and other contingencies that may occur before or during the trip:

• Loss of flights or connections. Note that some airlines do not guarantee or cover the cost of lost connections for delays or cancellations.
• Unforeseen family or work requiring the return ahead of schedule Emergencies.
• Thefts.
• Damage and loss of baggage or delay in receipt of the same.
• Liability.

Remember embassies and consulates do not pay medical or travel expenses.


Travelling with medicines

If you are afflicted with a chronic disease you should take with you the necessary medication for the entire duration of the trip. All medications, especially prescription, should be kept in hand luggage in their original containers with clear labels, and as a precaution may also take the medication in duplicate in checked luggage. You must bear the name and contact details of your doctor information about your medical condition and treatment, details of medication (including generic names of drugs) and prescribed doses.

In the case of traveling with other medical supplies such as syringes, you need to carry a doctor's report certifying the need for such material as may be requested by customs officers or security personnel.

There are specific rules for traveling with psychotropic medications and / or drugs under international control. These drugs cannot move freely abroad so it is necessary to have a certificate issued by the Spanish Agency for Medicines and Health Products. In the event that travel outside the Schengen area, will also need a certificate from your doctor. To continue treatment with these drugs abroad is necessary to have a specialist in the destination country, so proper research before you travel.

In some countries some substances are considered legal drug use in Spain, including alcohol and certain medications and therefore are worth their consumption, possession and trafficking. It is therefore important to check travel advisories for each of the countries to be visited.

Travel of participants in cooperation projects

If you're traveling to developing countries, either as a tourist or as supportive participant in cooperation projects or volunteer, it is advisable that:

• you detailed reports about the country of destination travel advisories reading.
• Observes that self-protection measures, if any, are recommended for Spanish residents in the country.
• you obtain prior information in the Technical Cooperation Office of the AECID or the embassies of Spain on the organizers and the projects to be undertaken.

Often, some organizations promoting solidarity tourism activities and volunteerism are not officially registered or provide any security or support for those who travel through them.

Travel of minors

The trip with minors is subject to specific restrictions. Border guards, both inside and outside the Schengen area, has a specific mandate to pay special attention to minors traveling accompanied or not.

In the case of minors traveling unaccompanied, border guards have the authority to conduct a thorough inspection of documents and travel documents in order to ensure that minors do not leave the territory against the wishes of the people who exercise custody.

If minors traveling unaccompanied, border agent may request documentation to prove the power of / or accompanying the undersigned travel authorization child with another adult homeland. Also, if the minor is accompanied by only one parent, you can also request specific authorization from the absent parent or make a more detailed investigation if it suspects that it has been unlawfully deprived of custody of the child to whom the exercise.

It is recommended that, in general, if the child is traveling alone, accompanied by a single parent or by third parties:

• Carry the express authorization, if any, of the parents, the absent parent or person legally exercising parental authority.
• Carrying ordinary travel documents (passport or national identity card, if applicable)
• Carry the documentation to prove paternity and custody as the case and the country of destination.

The requirement on the type of authorization and the circumstances in which it is required is highly variable depending on the country of destination and local laws and customs. If in doubt, you should consult the embassy or consulate of the country of destination.
