What movements are allowed?

Remembering that – for proven needs (health, work, reunification of couples, reunification of separated parents with children), you can always move around the peninsula, and that you are always allowed to return home (address, residence), the rules are as follows .

In the orange zone you can move within your municipality, without the need for self-certification, between 5 in the morning and 10 at night, when the curfew is activated.
