If you visit Mallorca as a tourist, a visa is not needed for short trips. You can stay up to 90 days in any 180-day period. However, if you are also visiting other EU countries, you will need to check that you do not spend more than 90 days in total across all the countries you visit, in any given 180-day period.

As of early 2026, UK citizens do not need a traditional visa to visit Majorca (Mallorca) for short-term stays of up to 90 days within any 180-day period. However, a significant high-fidelity change in 2026 is the full implementation of ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System). While not a visa, this is a mandatory pre-travel authorization that UK passport holders must apply for online before heading to the Schengen Area. It costs approximately €7 and is linked digitally to your passport for three years. Additionally, you must ensure your passport was issued less than 10 years before the date you enter the country and is valid for at least three months after the day you plan to leave. Since the UK is no longer in the EU, you will also be subject to high-fidelity "Third Country" border checks, which include fingerprinting and facial scans under the new EU Entry/Exit System (EES). It is essential to have proof of accommodation and a return ticket ready, as border guards may request these high-fidelity documents during your entry into Spain.
