Work Permits
A work permit in Gibraltar is required for non-EU/EEA nationals seeking employment. Issued by the Gibraltar Department of Employment, it ensures legal work authorisation. Employers must sponsor applications, demonstrating the unavailability of local or EU candidates. Permits are typically job-specific and time-limited, requiring renewal for continued employment.
