Moving to Malta: some formalities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
As a French, German or Spanish citizen, it is very easy to settle in Malta even after retirement! Indeed, members of the European Union (EU), as well as EEA, Switzerland and some other countries\u2019 nationals do not require a visa or a work permit to enter and\/or undertake paid work on the island. They must, however, apply for a residence permit<\/strong> if they intend to stay for more than three months. Residence permits for the purpose of employment are valid for a maximum of six months after which renewal is required. Requests to reside in Malta, without an employment permit, are generally granted for a minimum of 6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nationals from other countries<\/a> will need a visa to enter, remain and work<\/strong>. These include transit visas, short stay visas or long stay visas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is possible to obtain a permanent residence permit if you have been living and working in Malta for more than five years without having left the island for more than six months at a time during any one year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In Malta, the industry sectors where skills are the most in demand are tourism, online gambling, international trade, the textile or pharmaceutical industries<\/strong>. In restaurants in particular, the number of job offers explode during the peak tourist season. In addition to these seasonal jobs, it is quite possible to find a well-paid job as an experienced professional, especially in multinational companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Good command of English is essential to be able to work in Malta as it is one of the official languages and it is widely used in world business. In addition, being able to speak other languages is certainly an immense advantage as the island population is quite international. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For economic, tax and language reasons, many expatriates choose to set up their businesses in Malta due to its strategic geographical position. The island is truly a business hub at the crossroads of cultures and languages: English, Arabic, Spanish, Maltese. The government of Malta also offers entrepreneurs and investors who set up their businesses in Malta very attractive working conditions, including simplified procedures for creating a company, tax credits up to 50%, and a significant tax allowance on company taxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the island, the property market is thriving and dynamic, both for sales and rentals, with a broad range of options available. Once property ads are published, the properties are quickly snatched up. When looking for an apartment or house followup with the realtor in person and as soon as possible in order to best satisfy your accommodation needs: size, price and location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most rentals are furnished, no guarantor is required, but you will be required to give one month’s deposit, one month’s rent in advance and 50% of the rent to an estate agent, if applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In Malta, rental prices vary according to the location of the property. Obviously, if you choose to live in Valletta, Sliema and St Julian’s, rents are more expensive than anywhere else on the archipelago. If you move away from the big cities, you may be able to find lovely apartments or houses for lowert rent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rental ads on Times Malta<\/a>Working in Malta<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
