Working in Malta

Malta offers opportunities in accounting, audit, financial services, compliance, technology, iGaming, tourism, logistics, and professional services. English is an official language and widely used at work, while Maltese is the national language. The culture combines Mediterranean traditions with strong international influences, and life commonly includes seaside activities, historic towns, cafés, and an active social scene. Malta has a warm climate, though summers can be hot and housing, especially in popular areas, can be expensive. EU, EEA, and Swiss citizens generally have simpler work and residence arrangements, while non-EU nationals usually need an employment licence and residence permit arranged with employer support. Candidates should budget for accommodation, transport, healthcare, and relocation costs, and confirm current immigration and tax rules before moving.
