RE: ETC Clearance for Malta Work Permit (student) URGENT!!!!

Hi DarkshadOw,

without having all background information ( your organization ?, lodging property = hotel ? , length of internship and so on)

The employer ( lodging property ?) normally applies for a work permit for non-EU employees. You can apply yourself but the chances of being denied a work permit are higher.

The police clearance is usually the first step , then the ETC have to pass on the application to the European Job Agency ( EURES). The employer has to prove that no European interns are interested. All in all a quite complicated and time consuming process and you can't count on receiving a work permit.

Do you already have a visa ?

It is impossible to give you a timeline if the ETC can't .

Sorry I can't be more positive on the issue.

Hi Ricky!! Thanks for the quick reply
I am afraid I cannot disclose any information with regards to the information of my lodging property due to private and confidential matters but they were the ones who helped applied for my work permit. As for my Visa, Singaporeans enjoy visa-free entry into Malta.

However, the ETC Unit Manager said that the Clearance will be automatically issued once the Police cleared my permit. So will it hence still need to go under the EURES process? Based on your experience. Thanks!!
