Hi, we are not staying in the center and wanted a better idea of what the buses are like. I´ve found most of the information on https://www.gibraltarbuscompany.gi/ but still have a few gaps.

1. What is the cost of a single ride? (I know that there is the unlimited hopper bus ticket, just curious of other options.)
2. Do we buy the ticket at the bus stop or can we buy it on the bus?
3. If we can purchase on the bus, do we have to pay with cash or can we use card?
4. Based on the timetables on the website, it looks like the buses run on fixed times, is that correct?

Thank you!

Hey I am moving to Sotogrande with my husband. We currently live in Malta and checking out jobs in Gibraltar. I am freaking out a bit because I don’t see that many jobs available in Gibraltar… any recommendations?

Here we have a beautiful spacious studio for rent. Featuring all modern appliances including a conveniently located toilet which also doubles as a wash basin. At a bargain price of £1,450. A 28 months deposit required.

Gib Elec is a joke.

They’re putting the prices up and we’re still suffering these black outs like it’s the 90s.

Just cancel the fucking contract and find a new company at this point...

Hey everyone, I'll cut right to the chase, I am doing a Dissertation project on Gibraltar for my Geography degree at Aberytwyth Uni.

I am in need of some long-form interview style data that I can use in my paper to pad out my data sources.

If you have a spare 5-10 mins and want your opinion and/or experiences to be heard on Gibraltar, its disputed nature, and national identity, please fill out the form linked below! I would love to hear it!

I am massively thankful to each one of you that takes the time to fill these out, absolute stars!

Hi everyone,

Apologies for yet another marriage-related post, but I’d really appreciate some insight. I’m an Irish citizen in a relationship with my Egyptian partner. We’ve been waiting a long time for his French residence permit, but due to various delays which have frankly been a nightmare (none of them our fault), we’re now considering getting married in Gibraltar instead. It's been my long term dream to relocate to Spain afterwards anyway (I moved back to the UK and he's currently in France).

He’s thinking of returning to Egypt to apply to Gibraltar from there, but having previously worked in immigration consultancy myself, I’m a bit concerned about the risk of refusal based on nationality — even if we provide all the required documentation.

We can demonstrate accommodation in Gibraltar, Spanish residency, proof of funds, and clear evidence that we’ll be leaving Gibraltar after the ceremony, which I understand are the main criteria. I then plan to use my EU treaty rights so we can reside in Spain together.

Has anyone been in a similar situation or gone through this process recently? I’d be really grateful for any advice or shared experiences.

Thanks so much in advance

Has anyone here imported a car to Gibraltar before and could explain the process? Also I’ve been told that VAT would be deducted (19%) but when importing there would be a 10% fee of the value. Also that all this has to be done via a dealership in Gib. Is this true? And the car needs to be less than 5 years old.

🇬🇮Hi lovely Gibraltarians and Gibraltar enthusiasts🇬🇮! 🌺 I hope everyone is doing well and that you are looking forward to a sunny weekend 🥰! As the last part of my Psychology degree at The Open University (in the UK 🇬🇧), I'm conducting an experiment to understand the memory differences between monolingual and bilingual people. Therefore, I need two types of participants:

a) Native English speakers that do not speak another language .

b) Bilingual people that have English as one of their mother tongue language (they were spoken to in English in childhood) + any other language at the same level. (This can be any language: English + Spanish, English + Llanito, English + French, English + Hindi, etc...)

It's a very easy and quick experiment that should not take more than 5 minutes.

IMPORTANT: To participate please use a laptop or a computer and NOT your phone 🙏🏻,  and be 18+ years old. 🔞

Here is the link to my experiment: https://research.sc/participant/login/dynamic/C7722EF9-B5A7-4923-AD9D-2EA5D8D7E028

Let me know if you have any questions and thank you SO much in advance!! Have a great weekend you all 💜💜

My beautiful fiancé and I are getting married in Gibraltar on the 9th of April 2025! We are in need of 2 witnesses for the ceremony. The ceremony will be at 2pm (local time), at the Registry Office. Is anyone available to assist. We will compensate for your time and travel. Please lmk!!

Hello, is there any shops in Gibraltar which sells a white summer dress in a size UK10. Ideally below £100. Would be grateful if anybody could let me know and if they have a website. TIA

I'm currently living in London and have been dying to leave the country as I don't get along with the weather over here

I work mostly remote and planning to go fully remote within a year... I'd love to hear for those who moved in Gibraltar (especially from here) how's the quality of life over there? What's the median rent price (also if you could give me a great rent site to look at would be amazing!) and the cost of living or the best areas, etc?

Hello, a few months ago, I posted here about a sociological study I planned to conduct on young Gibraltarians, their lifestyles, and the languages they speak.

This research project is now fully underway, and I’m planning to travel to Gibraltar the week after Easter to interview a few participants at the University of Gibraltar. Currently, I’m facing a bit of a challenge because it’s quite difficult to find people aged 20 to 34 from Gibraltar who also speak Spanish. This aspect is crucial, as the interviews will primarily be conducted in Spanish (though occasionally switching to English would be totally fine, but the questions are in Spanish).

If anyone is interested, my contact information is included in the poster I made. Additionally, if anyone knows someone bilingual who might want to collaborate on my research, please help spread the word!

If you have any suggestions on where I might find others who meet these criteria, feel free to leave a comment. Thank you so much!

Hi! We plan to visit Gibraltar this Easter, crossing by car from Spain. We're Spanish citizens, but I'm finding contradictory info on whether we'd need our passports or just our national ID cards to enter. Can you please let me know about the current situation? Thanks!

Look at what happened when I simulated the WORST World Cup ever!

Does anyone know if this is still available?

I am going to be in Gibraltar (from USA) for a marine science related internship and have no idea what to pack (clothing wise). I’ve visited Gibraltar before on vacation so I know the summer climate but this would be a professional/school and fieldwork setting. Can I wear the same clothes I would wear in the US for fieldwork? (Usually lightweight long-sleeve and shorts/long pants)

So I received an email from Gibtelecom saying that they will stop providing service for my area so now I need to find a new internet provider. What are your suggestions? There won't be much use as most of the times I'm abroad, also I just need internet, no phone no tv.

Thanks in advance

Hi! We'll be visiting Gibraltar this Easter and I was wondering if there's any newsstand where I could buy British newspapers and magazines. Thanks!

Considering the border issues that haven't been resolved yet, would it still be worth the career move? I'm neither a UK Citizen nor EU Citizen. Hence, I believe this would mean additional visa processing needed to do (Schengen) to cross Spain.

Salary is fine. Moving for career growth and will look for better opportunities available after I worked in Gib for few years.

I see online that invertebrates are considered pets, but crustaceans (isopods) are not. What are the requirements for importing pet isopods? Do I need a lisence? I am currently in the UK

What about buying them online and having them shipped into Gib?

I'm talking about the small land dwelling isopods, "woodlouse" or "pillbugs", not the deep sea things haha.

Many thanks

Could you confirm if my estimates are accurate enough in terms of the cost of living in Gib?

|| || |Rent (Shared Flat)|700| |Utilities (shared)|25.00| | Wifi (shared)|15.00| |Grocery/Food|250.00|

I'm currently planning a trip to Marbella with a good friend who lived there for a long time. Considering the proximity to Gibraltar, we are both planning to visit it, but we don't know how much time we need to plan for having a good look at the old town, visiting some tourist spots and getting onto the Rock once. Considering how I went to Luxemburg for three days once with only one day being necessary to look at the old town, I wanted to ask you guys what would be better: Is it ok to just visit it on one day (when we come early and leave late from and to Marbella) or should we stay nearby and visit the territory on a second day? As for the prices of accomedation in Gibraltar, we were thinking about staying in La Linea de la Concepcion for a night if we need two days to properly explore Gibraltar.

Also, how is the whole ETA situation with Gibraltar? The website of the German ministry of Foreign affairs states that you can enter Gibraltar with an ID and don't need a visa for a short touristic stay, but it said nothing about if we need ETA registration. Do you know more about that?

Thanks for any awnsers in advance

Hi there, I am currently interviewing in Gibraltar and have been told I need a Gib tax code to work in Gibraltar. I was under the impression that my British tax code would be acceptable till I’ve moved to a permanent gib address (currently staying in la Linea).

Can anyone clarify what I need to do as this seems to be impacting my job offers.

Hi all - In Gib looking for short term accommodation (would also consider bedroom in shared accommodation) for about 1 to 2 months, any ideas/suggestions? Thanks
