Thanks for all the replies, so then I'll have to get the visa. I also read through the above thread and that really scared me, it would be a lot better to just apply for a visa before we go!

No at this stage I only have the EEA family permit. I know for some countries, like the Netherlands, that is fine. If I do have to apply for a visa, what documents will I need (I believe it is less than if I were just applying for a visa without having an EEA spouse?)

travel to spain

My husband is Irish and I have an EEA family permit. We are planning a short holiday to Barcelona in August. Will I be allowed to travel without a visa if I have my EEA family permit and our marriage certificate with us?

I thought as much, but thanks for the info! Here is to hoping that companies big enough to have graduate schemes have HR departments that are aware of EU law!
