Visiting Gibraltar on UK multiple visitor Visa

[Sedanday]

Hello

Please I would like to find out if it's possible to visit Gibraltar for a few days with an issued UK Multiple entry visa issued for six months.

I checked the site and it said
"holding EU issued family permits, UK Residence Permits valid for a period of 12 months or more, UK Biometric Residence permits or a UK multiple entry visa issued for 6 months or more.

I just want to find out if anyone has visited with a standard visitor visa and I would love to book a flight now.

Thanks

Well no, you don't hold a visa valid for more than 6 months do you? This is what it says, it must be issued for more than 6 months.

Thanks for responding
From the quote above it said "6 months OR More"

Plus I emailed the immigration department they replied this morning that I don't need a new visa if I have a uk one issued for 6 months or more.

A visit visa has a VALIDITY of 6 months, not 6 month duration so you need a residence visa really, it's what it really means.

Also you'd most likely enter Gib. from Spain so you'd need a Schengen visa too, preferably a Spain-issued one if you ever want another...

Thanks Wanderer for responding

I don't plan to enter from Spain but from England

I believe there are direct flights
Would I still need a Scheghen visa again?

I have the same question so I'm wondering if anybody knows the answer to this first-hand?

Sedanday, did you travel to Gibraltar on a Standard Visitor visa for the UK issued for 6 months?

In my case, I would be visiting Gibraltar from Spain (my country does not need a Schengen visa, but needs visa for the UK/Gibraltar).

First hand confirmation in case anybody stumbles upon this thread - you can enter Gibraltar with this visa at the time of writing this
