Starting October 1, 2026, Spain's DGT instruction PROT 2026/04 clarifies that sleeping inside a parked motorhome or camper van is not an offense if parking rules are followed. However, setting up tables, chairs, or awnings outside the vehicle constitutes camping and can result in a 200 euro fine. The instruction adopts Supreme Court doctrine and aims to reduce legal uncertainty, while local ordinances may still impose parking time limits.
