Hi Jeanbol,

welcome to the forum. There have been many posts answering your question about cost of living in Malta in the past. Check them out too!

My personal answer would be , depending on your own lifesyle and standards (where to live,what kind of car,what kind of school ,what kind of accomodation), any salary above around 2000 € netto/month should be ok for an expat with family.

Cheers
Ricky
