Solicitor for Immigration Law in Sliema

I’m a citizen of another EU country and I’m planning to move to Malta for work. I keep seeing a lot of information online about visas and work permits, but I’m not sure how much of it actually applies to me as an EU citizen, or whether the process is meant to be much simpler.

I applied for permanent, long-term residence status in Malta after living here for several years on temporary permits, but the application was refused with only a brief explanation. I want to understand whether I have a genuine option to appeal this, or whether I would need to start again from scratch with a fresh application.

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?

My employer has submitted my Single Permit application and I’m currently in Malta, but the application is still being processed. My employer is keen for me to start working right away rather than waiting for full approval. Is it actually legal for me to begin working before the permit is formally approved?

I’ve been legally residing in Malta for a number of years now on various residence permits, and I’m wondering whether I might now be eligible to apply for Maltese citizenship through naturalisation, given how long I’ve actually lived here.

My residence permit in Malta, tied to my current employment, is due to expire in a couple of months and I want to make sure I renew it properly and on time. What’s the general process, and how far in advance should I actually be starting this?

I’m a non-EU national and I’ve just received a job offer from a company in Malta. I was planning to start the residence and work permit application process myself before I even move, but I’ve heard this might not actually be how it works. Who is actually responsible for submitting this application?

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?
