Changing Employer in Malta as a Third-Country National

Guidance for third-country nationals and employers where a job move may affect work permit status, residence and employment timing.

A job move can affect status

Changing employer can create immigration and employment consequences. The position should be checked before decisions are made or start dates are agreed.

Both employers may matter

The existing employment relationship, proposed new role and permit route may all affect what needs to happen next.

Timing is important

Applicants and employers should avoid assumptions about when the new employment can begin.

Get guidance before the next step

Migration and relocation decisions tend to move quickly. A short conversation can help identify what needs to be checked, prepared or coordinated before the matter becomes urgent.
