Solicitor for Immigration Law in Qormi

I’m currently working in Malta on a residence permit tied to my employment, and I’d like to bring my spouse and child to join me here. Is family reunification actually possible under my current type of permit, and what would the process look like?

I entered Malta on a short-stay visa and, due to some personal circumstances, I ended up staying a few weeks beyond the permitted period before I was able to leave. I’m now worried about what consequences this might have, both immediately and for any future attempts to visit or reside in Malta or the wider Schengen area.

I’m applying for a residence permit in Malta as a self-sufficient individual rather than through employment, and I’ve seen health insurance mentioned as one of the requirements. Is this genuinely mandatory, and does any type of health insurance policy satisfy the requirement, or does it need to meet specific criteria?

My application for a short-stay Schengen visa to visit Malta was recently refused, without much explanation given. I had genuine reasons for wanting to visit and I feel the refusal may not have been entirely fair. Is there anything I can actually do to challenge this decision?

I’m looking into moving to Malta for work and I’ve heard there might be a minimum salary threshold that has to be met for a work-based residence permit to actually be approved. Is this true, and does it apply to all types of jobs or only certain sectors?

My employer has submitted a Single Permit application on my behalf so I can move to Malta for work, but I have no clear idea how long I should realistically expect this to take. I need to plan my move and I don’t want to give notice at my current job too early or too late.

I work remotely for a company based outside Malta and I’m considering relocating to Malta while continuing that same remote job. I’ve heard about a specific residence permit designed for remote workers rather than the standard employment-based route. What does this actually require?

I’ve been studying in Malta on a student residence permit and I’ve now been offered a full-time job here after graduating. Can I transition directly to a work-based residence permit while remaining in Malta, or would I need to leave the country and reapply from abroad?
