Single Permit Application Evaluation Time For Third Country Nationals

Hi
i wanted to know too how it works as my employer applied for me and my husband too.

From my vague recollection last year, about a month or two. I highly suggest you talk to your employer, as they should be in contact with identity malta and would have a much better idea of processing times.

I welcome your vague recollection Thanks for the answer, I appreciate it.

Once you get into the country, you will have to go through the Malta ID process though in Valetta.

As someone that just spent the last 4-5 renewing it, it's hell. Be prepared to spent 4+ hours in a waiting room with 30 other people. Also make sure you have all your documents in order before going.

That sounds intimidating. I heard that bureaucracy is slow in there but I guess there's nothing much to do. Of course being well prepared becomes more critical because I don't think I want to que in that line again

I did it 4 times last week for a renewal, each time was over a 3 hour wait. Absolutely brutal.

Not less than 8 weeks.

Can't say what's the max. time but 3-4 months of evaluation time seems normal.

Good luck with the process..
