Because if you think that only your name, date of birth and passport number are enough to book a hotel room or vacation apartment, you should hold on tight. <strong>Spain<\/strong> would like to <strong>more<\/strong> know about us. <strong>Home address<\/strong>, <strong>e-mail<\/strong>, <strong>Phone number<\/strong> - and, of course, how we pay for it all. A dream for bureaucrats, but perhaps not for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/online-Bucung-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"Online booking Mallorca\" class=\"wp-image-25974715\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\u00a9Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why all this?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Real Decreto 933\/2021<\/strong>which has actually been in the starting blocks since 2023, is now to be properly implemented. The idea behind it? More <strong>Security<\/strong>. More <strong>Overview<\/strong>. Briefly: <strong>Terrorists<\/strong> and <strong>Criminals<\/strong> should have a harder time making themselves at home in Spanish resorts. What used to be simple - name in, room out - is now becoming a little more complicated. <strong>Payment details<\/strong> and <strong>Contact information<\/strong> go straight to the authorities. So if you thought your vacation started with check-in, you've done the math without the additional forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>More bureaucracy or more security?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While <strong>Security authorities<\/strong> cheer, many roll <strong>Landlord<\/strong> with their eyes. Because what the government sells as progress means longer booking processes, new <strong>Booking systems<\/strong> and - oh yes - also new data that they have to store. A feast for the IT departments! And for us vacationers? Well, a little <strong>more effort<\/strong> before the trip, but who knows - maybe also a secure feeling that no one uninvited is checking into the hotel next to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What exactly does that look like?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Name, <strong>Gender<\/strong>, <strong>Date of birth<\/strong> and <strong>Passport data<\/strong> were yesterday - from October the Spanish authorities want to <strong>more<\/strong>. Now there are also <strong>Address<\/strong>, <strong>e-mail<\/strong> and <strong>Phone number<\/strong> in addition. This data must be passed on to the authorities within 24 hours and stored for at least three years. Sounds like a lot of paperwork? It is. But at least the Spanish sun remains just as warm and inviting as ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reading tips in isla magazine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/rental-car\/\">Book a cheap rental car via isla<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From October 2024, Spain will require more personal data when booking - name, address and even payment details will be requested.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":25974715,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"off","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"1380","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[2240,2241,2239,2242],"dipi_cpt_category":[],"class_list":["post-25974710","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mallorca-news","tag-persoenliche-daten-spanien-urlaub","tag-real-decreto-933-2021","tag-spanien-buchungsvorschriften-2024","tag-tourismus-spanien-neue-regeln"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25974710","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25974710"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25974710\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25988060,"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25974710\/revisions\/25988060"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25974715"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25974710"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25974710"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25974710"},{"taxonomy":"dipi_cpt_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/isla-travel.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/dipi_cpt_category?post=25974710"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
