Types of visas
Types of Visas in Malta for All International Students
The Malta student visa system is built on the EU and Schengen Area rules, so your process depends entirely on your citizenship and the length of your course.
Table: A quick comparison of visa options for international students in Malta.
Visa Pathway | Length | Work Rights? | Best For |
Visa-Free / Schengen (Short-Stay) | < 90 Days | NO | Short-term language courses and summer schools. |
National Long-Stay Visa (D-Visa) | > 90 Days | YES (Restricted)* | Long-term English or academic study (Non-EU). |
EU Freedom of Movement | Unlimited | YES (Unlimited) | All study types for EU citizens (e.g., Italians). |
For Italian (EU/EEA) Students
As an EU citizen, you have the right to study in Malta for any duration without a visa. You have the same rights as a Maltese citizen to work and live. For stays longer than 90 days, you simply need to register for the e-Residence Permit. This makes Malta one of the easiest and most flexible options for Italian students.
For Japanese and South Korean (Non-EU) Students (Short-Term: <90 Days)
As citizens of visa-waiver countries, you do not need a student visa in Malta for up to 90 days. You can enter the Schengen Area as a tourist and enroll in a short-term English course. This is the simplest option for a short study holiday.
For Japanese and South Korean (Non-EU) Students (Long-Term: >90 Days)
You must apply for a National Long-Stay Visa (D-Visa) before you travel to Malta. This is a formal application process that requires a Letter of Acceptance from your school, proof of accommodation, proof of funds, and comprehensive health insurance. This is a critical “reality check” as this process must be completed from your home country.

Work rights
Working While Studying in Malta for International Students
The rules for work while studying Malta offer a great opportunity for non-EU students to gain experience and earn money, but with specific conditions.
Visa / Student Type | Work Rules | Study Limit |
EU Student (e.g., Italy) | Yes (Full-time). No restrictions. | No limit. |
Non-EU (Student Visa) | Yes (Part-time). 20 hours/week. | Must be on a course > 90 days. |
Non-EU (Short Course) | No. Not permitted. | Must be 90 days or less. |
Important:
For non-EU students, the right to work only begins after your first 90 days in Malta. You cannot work during your first three months.
Working in Malta as a non-EU student is possible but requires paperwork. Your employer must apply for an Employment Licence from Jobsplus. This license is tied to that specific job—if you quit, you lose the license and must re-apply with a new employer.
