• In the case of managers and specialists for a minimum of three up to twelve uninterrupted months immediately prior to the intra-corporate transfer;
• In the case of trainee employees for a minimum of three up to six uninterrupted months immediately prior to the intra-corporate transfer.

Intra-corporate transferees are guaranteed the same terms and conditions of employment applicable to posted workers, except for remuneration. Third-country nationals must be given, at minimum, equally favourable remuneration as Maltese nationals in comparable positions. Applicants who satisfy such requirements are granted an intra-corporate transferee permit which constitutes an employment license. The maximum duration of an intra-corporate transfer is three years for managers and specialists and one year for trainee employees.
