Temporary Residence Permit
Applicants for the Malta Permanent Residence Programme, along with their dependants, may apply for a 1-year temporary residence permit. This allows them to complete the full application process necessary to obtain the residence certificate as per Legal Notice 146/25.
The complete application must be submitted within 6 months of receiving the temporary residence permit. Renewal of the 1-year temporary residence permit is subject to the sole discretion of the Agency and upon submission of the complete application pack within the stipulated timeframe.
