Gibraltar Secures EU Deal for Stability and Growth

A new UK-EU deal brings post-Brexit certainty to Gibraltar—ensuring border fluidity, economic growth, and a bright future for innovation and investment.

In response to the UK government, with the support of the Gibraltar government, reaching a political agreement with the European Union to protect British sovereignty, UK military autonomy and Gibraltar’s economic future, Gibfibre has released the following statement. 

“This agreement resolves the last major issue from Brexit, and that is to avoid the need for checks on people and goods crossing the Gibraltar-Spain border - a decision that will drive prosperity for Gibraltar. 

“This historic agreement finally provides the stability Gibraltar’s business community has been waiting for. The clarity around the border, sovereignty and long-term economic alignment with Europe is a major step forward, particularly for sectors like gaming, technology and communications.

“Cross-border certainty is fundamental to our workforce and our customers. This deal provides the fluidity and confidence needed to accelerate investment and scale innovation. Gibraltar is open, stable and strategically positioned – now more than ever. 

“The prospect of Gibraltar being part of the Schengen travel area, combined with a bespoke customs framework, gives us the tools to attract talent and capital while maintaining our British identity, and this is very much the best of both worlds.” 

Sean Randall, Head of Strategy at Gibfibre, gives his perspective on the agreement. 

“This landmark political agreement between the UK, Gibraltar and the EU brings long-awaited certainty to Gibraltar’s post-Brexit future. The framework resolves critical questions on sovereignty, border management and economic continuity, opening the door to increased cross-border fluidity, deeper European integration and stronger inward investment. 

“Working for Gibfibre, a leading provider of fibre connectivity and digital services in Gibraltar, I see this agreement as a foundational milestone. It ensures stability for thousands of workers who rely on a fluid border, safeguards British sovereignty and positions Gibraltar as a premier destination for innovation, gaming, fintech and digital infrastructure. 

“I believe this deal will help attract new business, talent and opportunity across key sectors, and offers a platform to reinforce Gibraltar’s reputation as a secure, trusted, connected and forward-looking jurisdiction with clear access to both UK and EU markets.”
