Can I enlist from a commonwealth country?

Hi

I am no expert on commonwealth application policy and process but our website states that the Army currently offers limited places for Commonwealth applicants and that you don't require UK residency prior to this to join.

Currently there are a limited number of places and roles available in the British Army to candidates from Commonwealth countries. To apply to join one of these roles please begin your application by registering. Once you have registered, the Army will be in contact with you and progress your application. The Army will not ask you for a fee or any costs to apply to join.

You must have a passport that is valid for at least 2 years from your start date in the Army. You must be applying to join the Regular (full time) Army. You cannot join as a Reservist (part time) from the Commonwealth.

There are more details at: apply.army.mod.uk/how-to-join/can-i-join…

The best thing to do is to start an application and then the National Recruiting Centre can assist you with any specific requirements and help you along the way.
