Spain and Portugal: 40 years in the EU! On 1 January 1986, Spain and Portugal joined the European Union. A leap into a new modern era – from limitations to new freedoms and new opportunities. Massive EU investments, access to the Single Market, boosting jobs, innovation, modern infrastructures and a stronger democracy. Four decades later, Spain and Portugal are a crucial part of Europe’s story and it’s future. 40 years of progress. Together!
