Relocating to Malta from South Africa

Post new topic

Desislava

am currently living in Johannesburg, South Africa and I would like to relocate to Europe, Malta more specifically.

I have the following questions:

1. I have Bulgarian Passport (I was born there), therefore as Bulgaria is part of the EU as of 2007, do I require a working visa in order to get employment? Which institution in Malta can I address to assist me with this?

2. I am qualified as an accountant, in SA and UK -ACCA, so my question is - what are the jobs availability in my field and how well does it pay in relation to general living expenses, rental, vehicle maintenace and petrol, etc.

3. Any other points that one can think of, and that could be of help in my reseach and planning for the big move.

Many thanks
