It is usual to have to live in Malta for 5 years before being elegible for permenant residence.
Unfortunately most TCNs are only given 1 year renewable Residence cards and these are often not renewed after 4 years to avoid the elegibility for PR.

Thanks,in addition
So, it sounds expats cant apply for PR in Malta right? And TCNs could not live more than 4 years ! isn't it?
