Work for non-EEA national, married to EEA National by Martok78
Hello guys, Some of you surely remember I recently moved to Malta with my Ukrainian wife. She has been offered a job in Sliema, but as far as I know she needs a work permit, since her nationality is still Ukrainian... The man who held the job ...
My wife has started the work mentioned up here... but maybe I am just not used to the Maltese ways, however I feel they are treating her in a strange way. They told her she would work with 2 months "probation"... fair enough. But they are ... Read More

I didn't really bother asking why... I called in before going there and the person who answered the phone, consulted with a colleague and told me that non-EEA need to prove they have been in Malta no longer than 3 months. The first thing they ... Read More

Just to close the thread with an update that might turn out to be useful for future non EEA members: For me went exactly as you guys explained, 2,5 and 2 minutes. For my wife, pretty much the same, except they needed any documentation that could ... Read More

Hello Oguza, Unless you have a Schengen Visa still valid (which is almost never the case for a work Visa), you cannot travel legally to any other country until the Permesso di Soggiorno has been granted. It also depends which country you are from ... Read More

This is good to know! I was under the impression that she would need a work permit or something of the sort in order to be allowed to work. Thank you all for your replies, so my wife needs to go to a police station and request for a conduct ... Read More

Hello Maryna, As far as I know (my wife is Ukrainian), you can visit Malta for up to 90 days since you are a resident in a EU/EEA country. This of course, if you have a regular residency permit/card in Spain. If you plan to come to Malta alone to ... Read More

Ladies and Gents, to sum up what you kindly brought to my attention: Theoretically, it would be my right to consider myself (and my wife) as resident whenever I so decide. Local institutions, including Maltese government and public offices, do not ... Read More

Thank you Johanna for your explanation. If things in Malta works the same as in italy, slamming law on the face of the worker will only place me in the bottom of their list :) I do, in fact have problems with bank accounts. A sparekasse employee ... Read More

Well I have to admit Cisk is not my fave drink... Kinnie is ok though. Maybe because in Italy we have something called Chinotto which is very similar in taste. Read More

The Schengen agreement states that there is no passport control at any internal border. That is unless the local police feels the need for a specific control. Despite what I read in this thread though, PDS is not a valid travel document, nor is the ... Read More
