Italy and Spain extend Schengen treaty suspension and maintain border controls

Euronews Portugal15 September 2026 at 18:41

Italy and Spain extended the Schengen treaty suspension, maintaining border controls. The 15-day extension was deemed necessary after checks by the immigration and border security analysis committee of the Ministry of the Interior. Spain responded with an identical extension until October 8. Italy reintroduced border controls on July 31, after the Ceuta crisis.

Why this matters

Readers traveling between Italy and Spain now face stricter border controls during this additional 15-day period, which may cause delays and complications in travel. The measure comes as a direct response to the migration crisis in Ceuta and reflects a trend of strengthening European border security that may affect future movements in the Schengen area.
