WATCH LIVE: UK nationals in Spain – advice and information for established, new and future residents

The province of Malaga alone has more than 40,000 British residents and many more are homeowners and live here part of the year or new arrivals seeking how to make their lives in Spain more permanent.

British consular services in Spain are here to help British residents and tourists who need assistance and an important part of their work is to inform British nationals on how to avoid problems while they are in Spain. The UK leaving the EU five years ago changed some of the rights and obligations of British residents in Spain.
