TCN visa type after getting work permit

Hi,

I have recently got my work permit granted by the Maltese government.

I would like to know which type of visa should I apply for?

Is it possible to apply fo a Schengen visa to enter Malta then get my residency permit?

Thanks

You will need a visa to enter the Schengen area including Malta. As you are intending to enter Malta and stay you have to apply with Malta.

According to this the right kind of visa would be 'D'.

You would need to apply for long-term visa (visa D). every schengen country has different requirements for long-term visa.
