NEW NORMALITY: How to avoid being fined in Spain. CREDIT: OLMO CALVO
Navigating through the norms of the new normality can be difficult so make sure you are behaving responsibly in order to avoid a hefty fine.
The most important rule is to always wear your mask when you are outside on a public pathway and cannot abide by the 1.5-metre distance or always when you are inside in a closed space. This applies to individuals over the age of 6. Fines for this rule can range up to €100.
Business owners who do not comply with the capacity or social distancing regulations can face up to €30,000 fines.
Although the Government is yet to release specific criteria for establishing fines against Public Health they have informed that these can range between €3,001 and €600,000!
