Hello,I know that at first we will have ordinary residency but afterwards we want to ask for maltese citizenship but I don´t know how long we have to live there for getting the citizenship. And we have our reasons why we don´t want to have Slovak citizenship, that is why we are moving from SK - everything is upside down in this country..
