Questions about this trip

Can I use my practice's CE allowance?

Many practices fund CE with an annual allowance and paid CE days. Your receipt lists the CE value separately, and we include a letter template for your practice manager.

Can I come alone?

Yes. Ask for a roommate match or book a private room when booking opens.

Do I need a visa for Spain?

US citizens don't need a visa for short tourist stays in Spain. Your passport should be valid for at least three months after you leave the Schengen area. The EU is also introducing ETIAS, a short online travel authorization for visa-free visitors, so check the current requirements at travel.state.gov a few months before you go.

Plan and pay for it

Good to know

Does CE earned in Spain count toward my US license?

Vet Passport CE is accredited through our partner, and your CE hours are documented on a certificate. Each state board sets its own rules, so check your board's limits before you book.

Are flights included?

No. Flights are never included. We share the best arrival airport (AGP) and timing so you can book.

Can a partner or non-vet friend come?

Yes. Every trip has an Explorer ticket for partners, retired vets, students and animal lovers. It's the full trip without CE.
