The restrictions in Mallorca due to the coronavirus are lifted as the epidemiological situation in the Balearic Islands improves. This evolution has caused the Government to relax the restrictions in a general way.
What measures are maintained as of April 20? Only some restrictions are defined on activities with a high risk of contagion. Likewise, the COVID Certificate, which was presented for months as a method to control infections, is no longer mandatory to enter bars, gyms or cultural events from Saturday, February 13.
The mask, which ceased to be mandatory on the street two months ago, is not mandatory indoors since April 20. It will only be mandatory in health and socio-health work centers, where special care must be taken for the most vulnerable people, and on public transport. Thus, the mask will continue to be mandatory in spaces such as hospitals, day centers, prevention services, dependency care centers and the like, as well as buses, trains and taxis.
By sectors and areas of activity, these are the restrictions that prevail in Mallorca due to the pandemic:
Main protection measures
According to the Government’s recommendation, individual and collective protection measures must continue to be adopted:
- Vaccination against COVID-19.
- Frequent hand hygiene.
- Hygiene if you have respiratory symptoms (avoid coughing directly into the air, cover your mouth with the inside of your forearm in these cases, and avoid touching your face, nose, and eyes).
- Safety interpersonal physical distance.
- Use of mask in public transport and hospitals.
- The preference of outdoor spaces to carry out activities.
- Correct ventilation of closed spaces and cleaning and disinfection of surfaces.
Covid Certificate
Citizens no longer need to present it to access hospitality establishments, cultural events, gyms, etc. This certificate is no longer required as of February 13, 2022.
Restoration
You can consume drinks and eat without time limits. In restaurants and nightlife, restrictions are eliminated and only the ban on smoking on the terraces is maintained. These restrictions in Mallorca do not have an expiration date.
Residences
The limitation of a single person to accompany people in the process of end of life is eliminated. Visitors are also allowed in the rooms.
Sport activity
The use of a mask is no longer mandatory in the bodybuilding rooms and directed activity rooms from April 20.
Cultural events and the like
From Tuesday, March 1, the restrictions until now in force on cultural, sporting and other mass events will no longer be effective. Limitations on the celebration of popular festivals, religious celebrations, parades, dances and the like are also eliminated. As well as those that were applied in more specific areas, such as those referring to dance academies, outdoor social activities with alcohol consumption, children’s and leisure activities, those that affected recreational centers for the elderly, commerce, choral groups or music bands.
Smoking ban still in effect
One of the few restrictions that remain in Mallorca is regarding the consumption of tobacco. Smoking is prohibited on the terraces of establishments for public use, as well as on public roads or in open-air spaces for public use when maintaining a minimum distance of two meters from other people cannot be ensured. To avoid new massive infections, bottles are also prohibited on all roads and public spaces.
when will we be able to dance ? I’d really appreciate a reply thanks so much for all the info!!
Hi Jack. For now, dancing is not allowed until further updates of the restrictions in Mallorca. We will keep this information updated. Thank you!
is it possible to travel by taxi to the airport form hotel at 4 am?
Hi
I live in mainland Spain and would love to visit Palma in the last part of August…from 15th onwards. Would you be kind enough to confirm if there are any major restrictions on going out at night. Also can we enter with negative PCR test as we did to enter in Tenerife, or are they asking for a vaccine passport?. Kind Regards
Buenos dias. My friend and I usually share a room on holiday. We are booked for September 8 for a week.. Can we still share our hotel room? I would really appreciate your help on this, and we cannot seem to find any advice this end. Muchas gracias.
Are all tourist sites open and are there are restrictions on entry? Thank you.
Most places are open, however each one has its own covid protocols.
Hi, are there any requirements for travelers from Barcelona? We are fully vaccinated.
Do I need a Covid test to fly from Valencia to Mallorca?
It is not healthy to exercise with a mask on at the gym . When will that stop ? How can one possibly breathe properly when exercising?
@Manta Trye, but it’s also unhealthy to wear a mask for any prolonged period of time while standing, sitting, walking, skipping, driving, or anything really.
we are thinking of booking a holiday to Santa Ponsa in April 2022 this being the Easter holiday time with a young family is there enough places open then and will masks still have to be worn outside do you think??
Hi Dee. I guess there will not be any problems regarding available accommodation. However, at the moment mask is mandatory in the streets, so not sure the regulation that will come in April. We hope you enjoy your holidays!
Hi we are travelling as a family of 5 in February. Can you sit as a family in restaurants? Many thanks
what are the nightlife rules in magaluf? we have a holiday booked in July and hoping to be able to go to the clubs and dance
just because things are “not allowed” or “mandatory” does not mean that these measures are legal.
Hi Beth. Rules are changing regularly and, for sure, will be different during summer season. So we need to wait until then to see which are the new restrictions in case there are any.
Hello Carla, sorry for the delay. At the moment there is no problem to sit as a family in the restaurants. You just need to show your Green Pass (Covid vaccination QR Certificate).
Hi, Is is possible to sit in a restaurant with a pcr test or antigen not a vacccine? Or take the plane from Barcelona to Mallorca with a test? One member of my familly can’t take a vaccine.
Thank you in advance.
Hi Tania, from Saturday 13th Covid Certificate will not be longer needed at restaurants.
Hi Raúl, thank you very much for your prompt reply.
Ah, just a small correction I think it is 12th of February on Saturday 🙂
You are right! Thank you for your comment, just made the correction 🙂
Are bars etc open as normal now?
Hello Steve. Yes, they are open as usual.
Hi, are the bars currently open in Palma/magaluf? Thanks
Hello Donna, bars are opening in their regular schedule.
Hi in England everything is getting dropped in March is that the same over there?
my wife is a smoker where can she legally have a smoke
Not in the bar terraces but outdoors where she is two meters away from people.
Hi are you allowed to dance and mix with tables at nightclubs and do you have to wear masks in nightclubs and bars?
Hi, are there bars restaurants currently open in Magalluf or Palma Nova right now?
Will a doctors letter of exemption from mask wearing be accepted? From a doctor in Northern Ireland? I was in malaga last week and was disgusted at how I was treated. Shouted at, called names, reported on the train, watched by security on the train, almost kicked out of a train station, and treated like a leper despite being able to prove I’m exempt. I even had security in the airport scream at me to stop walking and don’t move and she nearly wasn’t going to let me through to board my plane home, despite a letter of exemption! It was horrendous. I was never so glad to leave Spain. I’m coming to majorca in August and I would be tempted to cancel if I’m going to be treated in the same manner in shops on trains and by the public!
Hi
When is Majorca likely to lift all restrictions ?
Many thanks
Hi Barclay, most of the restrictions are already lifted now. Regards.
I am flying into Palms in May and am wondering about bringing some masks ‘just in case’ and wonder if there is or has been a requirement for a particular type of mask such as the FFP2 ? Thank you.
I am considering vacationing in Mallorca during the summer. The plan is to come by car. Are there still a lot of restrictions or is it completely free / normal as it was before the COVID nonsense?
Hi Ralf, for now things are kind of normal, so you will enjoy Mallorca if nothing changes.
I agree with Jeanine, we have a finca in Mallorca and travel regularly. I have 6 children. 2 of them are 13yrs old and an 11yr old and have exemption for most of my kids. They are now not used to wearing masks and nor I. My baby had ripped my only mask in the plane too. On landing I was shouted out, made an example off by a vile policeman in green who took away my passport (I’ve since written a letter of complaint) and every move my poor kids where shouted at for not wearing a mask on their nose. They are militant to the point of putting me off Maskllorca ( I now call it) Its such a shame as its a beautiful zen island but sadly when the law is the law they don’t even allow for exemptions even if you have a doctors letter.
Please can someone let me know if there are any restrictions with playing music outside?
I’m getting married at Jardine’s De Alfabia and have been told we cannot have our disco outside and that this has to be indoors.
Please can someone update me on this, or send me the details where I can find out more?
Hi
