Family reunification lets the spouse and minor children of a third-country national lawfully resident in Malta join them, under the EU Family Reunification Directive. The sponsor must usually meet a prior-residence period, income and accommodation conditions.
The family reunification route allows close family members to join a third-country national who is lawfully resident in Malta, under the EU Family Reunification Directive. It covers spouses and minor children. The sponsor must usually hold a qualifying Maltese residence permit and have met the prior-residence period, and you will need to prove the family relationship.
The main conditions are adequate accommodation, stable resources and health insurance, and the application is filed via Identita's Expatriates Unit.
Because the prior-residence period and the income and accommodation requirements depend on individual circumstances and can change, careful preparation of the supporting evidence helps. ACME can help you assemble the relationship and financial documentation and confirm the sponsor meets the conditions, and we recommend checking the current rules with the official source first.
