Hi Jon - That depends on what type of tips you need, we moved out 8
years ago, the only problem was the hassel in buying a house, if you
intend to buy then allow at least 3 month to obtain a permit to buy and
in most cases you are only ever allowed to buy one property.
Appart from that it is plain sailing, language here now problem.
You will need to register with the police if you intend a stay longer
then 90 days also it is a good idea to apply for an ID card as soon as
possible as this save a lot of time an hassel when at the bank and post
office if collecting anything. If you intend to live on Gozo then the
ID card allows you discounted fairs on the ferry from Malta to Gozo.
Hope this has been of some help if you need to know anything else let
me know. John
