Working and Residence Permits in Gibraltar

Residency and Working Permits Gibraltar

The only people allowed to live and work in Gibraltarwithout a residence permit are Gibraltarians and British citizens. Nationals from other EU member states can be issued with residence permits upon the provion of proof that they will not become a burden to the state. Non-EU citizens will find it more difficult to obtain a residence permit in Gibraltar as they must first produce a work contract, and that can only be issued if the employer can prove that no Gibraltarian or EU citizen is able or willing to do the job.

Surprisingly, marriage to a Gibraltarian does not automatically grant the right to a residence permit. Under current law a non-Gibraltarian man married to a woman from Gibraltar receives a residence permit as part of the package. Non-Gibraltarian women marrying local men will have to apply for a permit. But this is theory, in practice a wife receives permission to remain on The Rock as long as her husband is living there.
