My grandfather was Maltese and I have family who live in Sliema (aunts, uncles and cousins)
I have been to Malta plenty of times and love the life. I'm a hairdresser in the uk and I also work in a call centre too. I can speak a little bit of Maltese and could pick it up. I'm looking at moving to Malta after Christmas as I need to save some money first. I think family will put me up for a few months while I look for a
Job and somewhere to live (on my own). I've heard that the best time to look for jobs would be April may time ? I'm
Looking at visiting a few more times before relocating. But wondering will I need a work permit ?
Thanks
Danielle

Hi Dani

You can stay as a visitor for 3 months but within that time you will need to apply for your card which can either be as working or as a financially independent person.

There are several threads (including the top stickied one that explain about applying)
