Work Permits Malta
Non-EU nationals looking to work in Malta – whether as skilled professionals or employers hiring international talent – require an official work permit.
Work Permits Malta – What you need to know
Malta issues work permits primarily through the Single Permit procedure or the Key Employee Initiative (KEI). Both routes go through Identitá (formerly Identity Malta) and require tight coordination between employer, employee, and various authorities – including JobsPlus, the tax department, and social security.
For individuals, this means more than just gathering documents; you must ensure your employer is fully compliant. For employers, every application must be legally watertight – from the employment contract and minimum salary requirements to JobsPlus registration.
That is where we come in. DW&P coordinates both sides of the process. We know the common reasons for rejection, current processing times, and the ever-changing requirements. Whether you are applying for a single permit or relocating a team of specialists, we ensure the process works the first time around.

Work Permits Malta – How it works
Initial Consultation
We analyse your situation: who needs the permit, which type fits, and what documents are missing. For employers, we also check JobsPlus registration status. Always free of charge.
Document Preparation
We create a tailored checklist, check all documents for completeness, and handle translations and legalisations. For employers, we review the employment contract for compliance.
Application
We submit the application to Identitá and handle all communication with the authorities – on behalf of the employer, the employee, or both.
Follow-up & Approval
We monitor deadlines, answer authority queries, and keep you informed of every status change until approval.
Registration & Onboarding
Once approved, we apply for the eResidence Card, register you with tax and social security authorities, and assist with practical steps like bank accounts and health insurance.
