Solicitor for Immigration Law in Ta’ Xbiex

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 heard about people being deported from Malta and I want to understand, in general terms, under what circumstances someone could actually face deportation, particularly whether this only applies to serious criminal matters or whether immigration status issues alone could lead to this outcome.

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 hold a residence permit in Malta but I need to spend an extended period abroad, potentially several months, for personal reasons. I’m worried that being away from Malta for this long might somehow affect or invalidate my residence status here. Is this a genuine risk?

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.

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’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.

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.
