Accidentally Detained: When a Wrong Turn After Returning from Mallorca Becomes Costly

Answer

How can I find out if I have an outstanding fine before travelling from Mallorca?

The safest approach is to contact the relevant authority directly or use any available online service to check whether money is still owed. If you are unsure, a brief inquiry before departure is better than waiting until you are at the airport. This is especially useful when travelling internationally, where checks can happen unexpectedly.
