Welcome, Om International will provide you with some advice and useful information when studying and living in Malta. In preparation for your visit, international inspire you to familiarize yourself with this guide which advice helpful checks you can make before traveling to Malta and how best to take care of yourself and your belongings during your visit.

Malta as a country

Malta is constituted of three main islands (Malta, Gozo, and Comino), located in the Mediterranean Sea, south of Sicily. Only the three main islands are inhabited. Its total area is 316 square kilometers. The islands consist of mainly low, rocky, flat dissected plains with many coastal cliffs, numerous bays, and good harbors. Valetta is the capital. Surrounded by water, Malta has a Mediterranean climate with mild, rainy winters and warm, dry summers. Annual rainfall is low, and generally, there’s lots of sunshine.


Why you should choose to Study in Malta?


Malta is an ideal choice for students who want to combine study with tourism and leisure. One of the reasons why students get attracted to this tiny nation for purposes of education is that it has a uniqueness that is typical of many an island. There are three levels of education: primary, secondary, and tertiary (including higher and vocational training).
 The education system is based on the British system. In primary and secondary, students can go to state, private/religious schools, or international schools. From 2018 students from 16 years old are allowed to work 20 hours per week in Malta while they are studying. 

The purpose of this new measure is to attract more people for studying programs in the country. If you intend to study and work in Malta, Om International will give you all the information you need.

 A few considerations must be taken. Only students who will be in Malta for an initial period of at least 3 months will be able to apply for the Work & Study Visa as they can only work after their 90th day (3 months). 
Which means if your course lasts 4 weeks, you won’t be able to apply. In any case, the students will first be givens Student Visa. In other words, the wait for the processing of employment license takes from 4 to 6 weeks. 

This means that students can only start working from Week 13 (after their extension visa has been given). The license is granted for a maximum of 1-year visa. Over 1 year, the student has to apply for the residency permit and apply for a job through that scheme.

The student needs to find a job first (by himself/herself) and then s/he can apply for a work license which is issued for the duration of the validity of the visa. On the license, there will be the start and end date of employment, employee’s name, job status, and employer’s name. 

The license is only valid for the work and company that it has been issued for. A unique feature that comes to the fore is the acceptance of a third country language as a language that is taught, which will make the inhabitants of that country feel comfortable in Malta. 
This is evident in the acceptance of Mandarin Chinese that can answer apprehensions about Why to Choose Malta for higher study.
