Can a Maltese passport enable you to live and work in the UK for a long time?

Legal analysis: 1. As EU citizens, Maltese citizens can live and work in any member state without a work permit. EU law gives all EU citizens, including Maltese citizens, the right to work for employers or to be self-employed within the EU. Of course, each member country has its own laws, so we should refer to the laws of the target country before moving. At present, a large number of Maltese citizens work and live in Britain. With the end of the transition period of Britain leaving the EU, Malta may reach a bilateral agreement with Britain to specify a different set of rules. Of course, if a soft Britain is reached with Britain to leave the EU, this situation is likely to last for some time. If there is no agreement to leave the EU, Britain will enact a new immigration bill to end free movement, which means Maltese citizens will need immigration permission to enter the UK. According to relevant information, the British Home Office may implement a temporary visa in Europe to stay in the UK, which will allow Maltese, as well as all citizens of the European Union and the European Free Trade Area, to travel to the UK and stay for up to 36 months to work and study, but the visa period cannot be extended.

2. According to relevant British regulations, before June 30th, 20021,the rights and status of EFTA citizens living in the EU in the UK will remain unchanged. In addition, applicants need to apply for residence status before this. Only those who have lived in the UK for five years can obtain permanent residence, but there are also some time exemptions due to illness, study, vocational training and other reasons. This status allows the holder to continue to live and work in the UK, accumulate state pensions and use public services as now. Those who have lived for less than five years can apply for residence status first, and then change to permanent residence status after living for five years. But the premise of everything is that EU citizens must settle and live in the UK before 2020 12.438+0. After that, EU citizens need to look at the requirements of the new policy.

Legal basis: Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Entry and Exit Administration.

Article 3 China citizens leaving or entering the country shall pass through ports open to the outside world or designated ports and be inspected by frontier inspection organs.

Article 4 After leaving the country, China citizens shall not commit any acts that endanger the security, honor and interests of the motherland.
