Spain’s large-scale migrant regularisation programme ends on Tuesday, with last-minute applicants scrambling to complete or submit documentation to secure legal status. The scheme was launched by Spain’s leftist government amid what it described as a broader European shift toward tougher measures against irregular migration. Multiple outlets report that the process concludes after a period in which migrants sought to regularise their situation through the government’s amnesty-style pathway. France 24 adds that the government says more than one million people have applied, underscoring the scale of the effort. RTE News and The Local both frame the final hours as a “dash” by hopefuls, reflecting deadlines tied to the programme’s closure. The reported focus across sources is the end date itself and the immediate administrative push by applicants in Madrid and elsewhere. While the outlets do not detail the exact eligibility or approval outcomes, they agree on the key timeline: the regularisation started under Spain’s current leftist government and is now closing, leaving applicants to finalise their paperwork before the window closes.
