Can I work in Malta and move to another EU country with Long-Term Residence status?

A key advantage of EU Long-Term Residence is the rights it unlocks. Holders may take up private-sector employment in Malta without needing a separate work permit, and enjoy access to education and healthcare on terms similar to nationals.

The status also carries EU-wide mobility benefits. You can travel within the EU and apply to settle in another EU Member State under the simplified mobility provisions that long-term residents are entitled to, although the second country still applies its own conditions before granting you residence there.
