Hey guys,
I posted a few days back trying to get some information about a non eu spouse (myself) and my British wife moving to Malta.
I git a couple if helpful answers but in the end my thread got wayyyy off topic by other members and I left with little information.
So as I understand I am allowed to come to Malta as a non eu spouse as long as I travel with my wife there. Is that right? Do I apply for a tourist visa when coming or a joining eu family member visa? I live in dubai and we apply through vfs global here who are not allowed to guide you as to which visa I should apply for.
After coming I believe she must get a job within 3 months? Then only can I apply for a e-residency card? Whilst she is looking for the job can I also be looking for employment or must I wait for the e residency to come Through?
How long is this e-residency card valid for and what does it entitle me to do? Is it the same as the EU residency card which after I have I do not need a visa to EU member states as long as I am travelling with my wife or is that something different?
When can we look for a permanent place to live? As I imagine it would be very expensive to be living in a hotel looking for jobs for the first 3 months as I imagine we cannot rent an apartment long term till we both have jobs?
If someone was able to guide me in detail about the steps we would face it would make things much clearer for us. And we would greatly appreciate it. As it's still quite confusing to us.
Thank you!!!
