Malta Work Visa: Study Options While Working in Malta
"Yes, you can study in Malta while on a work visa, but there are important conditions to follow.
Here’s what you need to know:
✅ Allowed:
If you hold a valid Malta work visa (Single Permit), you are legally residing in Malta and may enroll in part-time or short-term courses (such as language classes, professional diplomas, or online study programs).
You can study after working hours, as long as your main purpose remains employment.
❌ Not allowed:
You cannot switch to full-time academic studies (like a bachelor’s or master’s degree) without changing your visa type.
If you wish to pursue full-time education, you must apply for a Malta student visa or change your residence permit through Identity Malta before starting the course.
???? Advice:
For short courses (English, IT, hospitality, etc.), check with Maltese educational institutions — they usually accept work permit holders for part-time study.
For full-time study, contact Identity Malta Agency or your school’s admissions office to apply for a student residence permit."
