Crowds crossed from Spain into Gibraltar after a new treaty between the European Union and Britain took effect. The agreement permits Gibraltar residents to enter Spain with residence cards and Spanish citizens to cross using government-issued identification.
The treaty is intended to ease daily travel and shorten wait times at the border. Officials on both sides implemented the new procedures at crossing points.
Border staff began accepting the new documents immediately after the treaty entered into force. Travelers reported shorter queues compared with previous requirements. The change applies only to routine crossings and does not alter customs or immigration rules for longer stays or commercial traffic.
