Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government, with regard to the UK-EU Agreement in Respect of Gibraltar: Joint statement on 11 June, whether any stay by a British citizen in Gibraltar will count towards the 90-day limit within a 180-day period for third-country nationals entering the Schengen area.

Non-resident British nationals can currently visit Gibraltar for up to 90 days. The same will be the case under this agreement. As visitors will be free to cross into Spain without checks, time spent in Gibraltar will count towards the European Union's 90 in 180 requirement. Immigration into Gibraltar is, and will remain, the responsibility of the Government of Gibraltar. This agreement provides a solution to the unique situation in Gibraltar. It ensures a fluid border to deliver certainty for the people and businesses of Gibraltar and has the full support of its Government.
