Work Visa from Nigeria to Malta
- If you’re planning on taking a job in Malta you might need to get a work visa first.
- A worker from a non-EU country must first obtain a visa to enter Malta and then apply for the residence/work permit once in Malta.
- Work permits in Malta are employer-specific (although there can be exceptions), occupation-specific, and location-specific, and are normally valid for one year.
- If you are not a citizen of an EU country, you need an employment license in order to be able to work in Malta.
- EU nationals [except citizens of Croatia], EEA and Swiss nationals do not require an employment license to work in Malta.
- Third country nationals who are eligible for the Single Permit Application still require an employment license.
- They also need to submit a health clearance form.
- Work permits must be secured for employees, and sponsored by a locally licensed and incorporated entity.
