Hi, the British Embassy in Spain (facebook) Brits in Spain, have issued an update on Residencia and have sent an encouraging message to British Ex- Pats. please read or perhaps someone (who can) will post this information on my behalf. Thank you. Billy1.

Thanks Billy, that is extremely useful information and here are the details and links you asked to be posted:

Quote from: Brits in Spain via the EmbassyWe have updated our residency information on gov.uk (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/residency-requirements-in-spain). This, plus the guide released this week by the Spanish government (http://prensa.empleo.gob.es/WebPrensa/salamultimedia/documento_enlaces/covid/GUIA_BREXIT_ENG.pdf?fbclid=IwAR2TLdP6f50T_b-ab7iigQRUuayNQNEjEAb4-xyNMMW4urXzFiAIsYV7IfI) will answer the majority of your questions on residency, so please do read this information before sending your individual questions. For additional clarity, please see the joint video message recorded by HMA Hugh Elliott and Secretaria de Estado de Migraciones Hana Jalloul earlier this week.

  Thanks for that Drax, I knew that you come through as usual. Billy1.

I've watched the video three times now, not sure why, it just repeated itself, but the bit where the minister says you've built your homes here in Spain and we don't want you to leave gave me goosebumps.

  Drax, I could'nt agree more it gave me the same feeling. Something really positive at last for the Ex-Pats.

Let's hope Boris doesn't start playing silly buggers with respect to Spanish people living in UK and spoil it all....
It's the first really positive signs we've had so far....

If anyone can mess it up Johnson can so like everything nowadays just have to wait and see!😁
