Will the personal allowances between Gibraltar and Spain end?

Short answer

Yes. The allowances regime for travel between Gibraltar and the EU applies for an initial three years from 15 July 2026, after which travellers will be able to carry any quantity or value of goods, provided the goods are for personal or family use or intended as gifts.

Detailed answer

After the three years, the position will mirror travel between EU Member States. Goods bought for resale or in commercial quantities will still be treated as commercial goods.

The allowances regime for travel between Gibraltar and non-EU countries such as the UK is permanent.
