Gibraltar is a member of the EU so if you are a citizen of an EU country you wouldn't need a visa or anything special. Search this forum for threads about Gibraltar - there are loads.

Hi, I can't seem to find anything on the moving process. It seems to be all about schooling fees. Is it as simple as finding a place to rent and then getting on a plane. Do I have to do anything with banking? Tax?

If you read the threads on GIB you will find schooling and accommodation is expensive on Gib, and most people seem to choose to live in Spain and commute over the border. However this isnt without problems either.

Schooling is free whilst accommodation is expensive in Gibraltar

If you look in the Free Beer thread you will find at the bottom lots of links to Gibraltar including Tax

If you are an EU citizen then yes you can can just get on a plane.
Gibraltar banks are mostly offshoots of UK High St banks.

Hi Andy I would be interested in where you are now, with the moving to Gib etc and what you decided. Are you staying in Gib and schooling children there or was Spain your option.

Have the offer to move over with my partner and two children age 7 and 12, just wish a guide of costs etc and what you have found to be the best way to live a comfortable life over there.

If anyone else wishes to get back to me that would be great, but really looking for information from someone living there, with children about the same age. To give me a guide on schooling and what my role would be getting them there and back. As it may take me time to get a part-time job to fit in with the kids etc and looking at the cost of everything we may need my part-time wage sooner than later.

I live in Gib but luckily have never been cursed with children.

Everywhere in Gib is within walking distance so getting kids to school is no problem.
