What are the types of visas in Malta?

Each country has a fixed visa type. When applying for a visa, the applicant should prepare the materials required by the embassy and submit them to the embassy. It is also necessary to select the relevant type according to the applicant's travel purpose. Therefore, before applying for a visa, the applicant should know clearly which visa types the destination country can apply for and which visa types Malta has?

Malta is a Schengen country. When applying for a visa, the embassy will have certain requirements for applicants. There are also two different types of visas, one is Schengen visa (type C) and the other is national visa (type D). Applicants can choose according to their own circumstances.

For Schengen visa type C, it is basically all visas that stay up to 90 days, such as visas for tourism, business, study, medical treatment, seafarers, visiting relatives and friends, sports and cultural conferences. Holders can travel to any Schengen country with Schengen visa.

The national visa (category D) mainly includes all categories that stay for more than 90 days, such as: work, family reunion, residence permit holders, etc. Applicants holding this type of visa cannot enter other countries but only Malta.

As for Chinese citizens holding ordinary passports and non-Chinese citizens holding long-term residence in China, they can apply for Schengen visa and long-term type of Maltese visa at the visa center.

Generally speaking, applicants apply for a Maltese Schengen visa. When applying for a visa, applicants should prepare the materials required by the embassy and submit them to the embassy. After obtaining a visa, they can also enter other Schengen countries, but they cannot apply for it for the time being due to the epidemic.
