Re: How long until the green credit card sized eu citizen card is invalid

Take a photocopy of your passport and padron certificate (volante) as well. Payment card to pay the fee as they don't take cash. Probably a good idea to keep a photocopy of your green certificate.

Re: Spanish boarder issues with Gibraltar
