Gibraltar deposit rules

In Gibraltar, the standard security deposit is one month's rent. This is held by the landlord (or sometimes an agent) during your tenancy and returned at the end, minus any deductions for damage beyond normal wear and tear.

If you find the property through a letting agent, expect to pay an agency fee of one month's rent on top. Properties let directly by landlords typically don't charge this.

In practice, most tenants need to have 2–3 months' rent available upfront: deposit + agency fee + first month.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many months deposit is standard in Gibraltar? +
In Gibraltar, landlords typically ask for one month's deposit. Two months is less common but can occur for furnished properties or where the landlord has concerns about affordability. Always confirm the exact deposit requirement before signing.
Is the deposit refundable? +
Yes. The deposit is held against damage beyond normal wear and tear. Provided you leave the property in good condition, it should be returned in full at the end of your tenancy. Gibraltar doesn't have a statutory deposit protection scheme, so make sure the terms are clearly set out in your tenancy agreement.
Do all landlords charge an agency fee? +
Not all. Private landlords listing directly usually don't charge an agency fee. If you find the property through a letting agent, one month's rent as an agency fee is standard. Always ask upfront before viewing to avoid surprises.
