Well said. However, as it was written is was an easy assumption, for someone who may not have your expertise, to arrive at. I apologise if you thought I made the assumption that you were in support of 'remain', it wasn't really on my ... Read More

Leaving the EU would add to the cost of trade though. UK businesses trading with the EU would at the very least have additional compliance costs as shipments would fall within export rules instead of dispatch rules. Unless a favourable trading ... Read More

In retrospect, would you move again to Malta? by Christine

Hi all, If you had to look back on your expat experience in Malta, would you heartily say "letÂ’s do it again"? From the preparation stage to your actual everyday life in your new country, what did you enjoy the most? Would you do certain ...

My wife and I are considering g retiring to Malta in the next 2 to 3 years. We'll buy a property, preferably a house, and will have a retirement income of around €25,000 p.a. Is that enough to live on? Also,is there enough to do on Malta ...

Bringing medication whilst on holiday in Malta by microlith

My wife and I are coming to Valletta for a week. We both use medication that is controlled in the UK: opiates, morphine, for pain problems. Are there special Malta regulations we will have to comply with? Guidance welcomed.

MickyJoe

Hi microlith. I have had the same problem for years. Old 'war' wound hehe. I take Zormorph, Tramadol and Codine on a daily basis for my pain. Like Rob says, a letter from your GP will cover it. I have a standing letter I keep with my ... Read More

I was wondering how much a new mazda 2 was in Malta. A friend told me not as much as a new mazda 2 in Germany but probably the same price as a new mazda 2 in Spain. Another friend called me to inform me about the cost of mazda 2's in Cyprus, ... Read More
