Italy extends Schengen agreement suspension with Spain for another 15 days

RTP Notícias15 September 2026 at 15:00

The Italian Ministry of Internal Affairs announced this Tuesday that it has decided to extend for another 15 days the suspension of the European Union's free movement agreement with Spain.

This decision comes in the wake of the Ceuta crisis, which led to the implementation of border controls between the two countries.

The suspension of the Schengen agreement implies temporary restrictions on the free movement of people between Italy and Spain.

The Italian Government justifies the measure as necessary given the migration situation created by the Ceuta crisis.

Why this matters

Readers are affected because land travel between Italy and Spain continues to be subject to tight controls and possible delays. This decision extends an exceptional measure that arose after the migration crisis in Ceuta, a Spanish city in North Africa, and reflects increased tensions in the management of European borders.
