The following Employment Licences Guidelines are intended to act as a guide to applicants and to foreign non-EU nationals (with the exception of EU Member States undergoing a transitional phase) wishing to work in Malta. These guidelines are subject to regular updates, thus, it is important for applicants to comply with the guidelines applicable at the date of application.
Third Country Nationals wishing to apply for a Work/ Residence Permit, and who are eligible for a Single Permit Application, are to submit their applications at Identity Malta Agency, Valley Road, Msida. For further information regarding eligibility and documentation required, visit the Department’s website or contact the Department for Expatriate Affairs on 25904800 or by email on singlepermit.ima@gov.mt
Third Country Nationals in possession of a Single Permit are eligible for guidance services offered by Jobsplus. For more information on these services click here.
