Hi EL J,
Currently if you are British, Irish, or from a Commonwealth country you can apply to join the British Army. You don’t need UK citizenship or residency.
Places and roles for Commonwealth soldiers are limited but once you register your interest the recruitment team will contact you and let you know your options.
If you meet the criteria then simply fill out the online application form and a member of the Recruiting Team will contact you.
I hope this helps but please feel free to come back to me if you’d like to know more.
