Hi guys! My first post on here so please bear with me! I am 21 and from Dublin, currently considering a move to Malta. Halfway through securing my degree in midwifery and have contacted various agencies and govmt. officials in Malta to ask about pay ...

Hi, I found the Maltese embassy in Dublin really helpful, just send them an email with your plans and they will get back to you with lots of information. I would say that you should expect all the paperwork to enable you to work in Malta to take ... Read More

Mantonas, I do my shopping in Aldi. I don't think there's an Aldi in Malta, but there is a Lidl, which I looked up and the prices seem equivalent to their prices here. I don't get the bus, I don't smoke, I drink very little and my daily commute is ... Read More

Thanks Lambada for your calculations (and brutal honesty). So what salary would you need to be on to have a comfortable lifestyle? Perhaps I will put my negotiation skills to the test... Indeed the nightlife on Malta seems fantastic, although I ... Read More

Yes I agree 100%, I'm not in the least materialistic and how much money I earn doesn't define me by any means. My concern is that I will be moving to a distant land, on my own, which I think will be tough enough, so I really don't want being able ... Read More

It would be a third of my salary here. The sunshine doesn't come cheap! Also obviously the lifestyle in Malta is considerably more pleasant, and the Maltese people are without a doubt the friendliest people I've ever met. Read More

I was in Malta a few weeks ago and found that food isn't really any cheaper than here in Ireland, and petrol is the same price. Looking at estate agents it seems that a decent place would cost at least 400 a month. So its hard to see where I would ... Read More

When does the tax year start? So is that 10% of 17,000 also? Are tax and social security the only charges? That 17,000 is dwindling. Read More

Scooter on Gozo - sucidical? by Lemmon

Well, comfort would be being able to afford a nice one bed apartment and the ability to buy food, pay bills and healthcare, travel costs etc without worrying if you'd have enough to make it to the end of the month! Read More
