Getting help in Spain 

Emergency assistance 

Contact your travel provider and insurer if you’re involved in a serious incident or emergency abroad. They’ll tell you if they can help and what you need to do to make a claim. 

Getting help

If you cannot get the support you need from local services, the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) can help British people abroad.

We prioritise emergencies and people who are vulnerable, for example, if someone’s:

  • ill, injured, or involved in a crime
  • with a British person who’s died

Get help from FCDO

Passports 

If you’re abroad and cannot use your passport, for example if it’s been lost, stolen or damaged, you can apply for a replacement passport.  

If you need to travel before your replacement passport is issued, you can apply for an emergency travel document
