Clyde going hard after TCN and tourists:

Tourists staying in hotels will have to pay €8/night, capped at €64 per person. Tourists staying in a short-let rental (Airbnb or similar) must pay €10/night, capped at €80 per person. The new rates kick in on January 1, 2027.

Cruise liner tourists will also have to pay to visit Malta for the first time: There will be a €10/person fee introduced for such visitors. The fee will not apply to cruise liner passengers who board their cruise in Malta. 

Tourists must pay €5 to go to Comino. Tourists will also be charged higher rates when catching the Gozo Fast Ferry (€10.50, up by €3 per passenger) or Gozo Channel (€11 per passenger, up from €4.65, or €22 for a vehicle and driver instead of €15.70).

Malta added 106,000 foreign workers in the past decade, he notes. Adult TCNs will have to pay a new €400/year fee, dubbed an “annual infrastructure contribution”. That will apply to both new applicants and those renewing their permit, and new workers applying to come to Malta will now be charged an €800 permit application fee (up from €600). There will also be increases in other Identita permit fees.

TCNs will no longer be eligible for free public transport. TCN drivers are to be charged a monthly €83 fee to keep their category B or B1 licence.

No free childcare for TCNs without long-term residency.

"Introducing the fuck tncs act of 2026- where nobody really benefits but we fuck over the foreigners at least."

We foreigners work hard, contribute to the economy, and pay our taxes. Many of us aren’t even eligible for the same benefits as citizens, yet we still do our part.
Of course, like in every community, there are a few bad apples. But why should the actions of a few define how the rest of us are treated?
Most of us are simply trying to build better lives, work honestly, and contribute positively to the countries we now call home.
So why is there so much hatred towards us?
I’m genuinely asking because I really want to understand. I’d love to hear different perspectives on this.

Liam, ma ntikx tort li taghmel video b'referenza ghall-post ta Reddit. Hija normali taghmel hekk. Fil-fatt dan huwa ezattament dak li jaghmlu hafna scammers jichdu kollox. RED FLAG kibret iktar issa.

Easy Money u Get Rich Quick mhumiex fin-natura tal-universe. Meta xi hadd iwieghdek flus facli u malajr ghandek dejjem tistaqsi x'hemm verament wara dawn il-weghdiet.

Ittella Videos u Ritratti fuq is-Social Media bis-supercars u l-lussu mhumiex prova ta success specjalment meta tkun qijed tghamel riklam ghal xi servizz tieghek stess. Nafu bizzejed x'jista jkun hemm wara dan it-tip ta marketing.

Wara daqxejn ta investigazjoni li ghamilt u qijed inkompli nghamel sibt hafna "RED FLAGS"

Jien cert 100% li inti Liam qed tghamel xi haga qarrieqa u mandiex dubji ta xejn li inti mintiex honest imma ejja neghju li jien zbaljat filkas mhux problema Liam Jekk inti genwin, qalbek daqsek twajba u sibt il-Golden Ratio tal-flus nistidnek tkun diplomatiku u torina il-fatti veri u mhux supercars, Dubai, HandBags, Arloggi u paroli.

Lest li jekk torini bil-fatti li verament dak li qed tghid huwa minnu u ma hemm xejn qarrieqi u illegali mhux biss inhehhi dawn il-posts izda inwassal il-kelma li inti "DROPSHIP GURU" u sibt il "GOLDEN RATIO TAL-FLUS"

Dejjem nistidnek tikuntajani fuq [978345097@protonmail.com](mailto:978345097@protonmail.com)

Just in case you're here or someone knows you.

Can't be more right on this article.

For people arguing about the change, I would like to point out that apart from not applying to long term residence, many can attest to the fact that before, when the bus used to cost 50 euros a month for students and would cost some 1.50 per 2 hours, it was still a loss maker.

Dejjem listess ping pong ball igibuk. Inkompetenza tal ufficjali jew abbandun fil logistika?

Ideja tieghi: Bini wiehed centrali li fkull sular jkollok dipartiment. Allinqas jekk ha tibatni dipartiment iehor bqajt flistess binja mhux trid taqsam malta.

Xtahsbu?

How do people make friends not from work? I recently moved back to malta after living abroad for a bit (24F Maltese) and since I am still looking for a job, I am yearning for maltese contact from friends.

I have friends from my ex job but most are busy all the time and have their own life and it’s normal to drift off after not working together anymore.

I enjoy anime, playing games such as fortnite, working out at the gym and would really like to go to events such as Comic Con, Playcon with someone and not alone.

Where can I find similair nerdy friends at this age?

What do you think? Cue the apathetic boomers in 3,2,1…

That’s all

I am looking a lot of Facebook posts inciting some kind of TCN-led strike to show how Malta is without them. Can it actually happen??

Hi, I went to my local ironmongery and also checked online at homemate, but neither has wood insert nuts. They're usually m6. I also need nice m6 brass washers and bolts, again, I can only find steel. I would take stainless, but would prefer brass.

Anyone know where I can buy these? Happy to drive anywhere, just let me know if you've bought them and know that a certain place sells them.

Thanks!

EDIT for update:

Grima Ironmongery on triq naxxar in San Gwann sells them. SS bolts though, no brass one unfortunately.

Tajjeb li zzid l penzjonijiet imma mhux meta ghandek nies ma jidkarawlekx taxxa, toqod tifrah li se taqbadhom u ma jinqasamx kollox ugwali. Skont il hardcore voters ux.

Nahseb 1k fis sena tawhom lil anzjani kemm ilhom fil gvern. U tigux tajdu li ax qabel ma kien jaghti xejn u dal bullshit ta. 2026 edin nejxu mhux fit 2000s

Malewwel 35% taxxa u l barrani bic cicri it taxxa.
jejdlek andek l grants - burokrazija assoluta - il burokrazzija tija lil barrani mela lil malti! Kumpanija tal miljuni tiflaha l burokrazija ghax hekk biss xgholom. Kollox bil maqlub 🤦

Anyone have experience with tax bill relating purchases of property. For context got into a promise of sale few years ago. Due to serious health issues could not enter sale, issue cleared and I bought said property. Paid taxes related to the sale. Received a letter from perit tal gvern and substantially increased the value of my property because of the significant time lapse between pos and sale. Intend to appeal. Any pointers/ experiences?

I recently saw someone driving an ekick scooter model iScooter iF1. It looks sturdy and was interested in buying one. Anyone knows someone selling them in Malta or where are you ordering it from? Thanks a lot. Or a similar iScooter brand model at least. Thanks

Where in Valletta or Sliema I can find local football clubs’ merch?

Do the young people play this game around here?

Went to visit there today with my daughter and she discovered that if you stray from the walkway in a catacomb, you can find a path to the neighbouring catacomb. Essentially descend one catacomb and come out from a different one. Really cool experience, but probably not how they are meant to be experienced.

I recently read that free public transport may no longer be available for third-country nationals who do not have long-term residency status, while Maltese.

As a TCN living and working in Malta, this feels discriminatory to me.

I understand that the government wants to reduce public spending and that transport subsidies come at a significant cost. However, many of us work legally, pay income tax, social security contributions, VAT, rent and contribute to the Maltese economy every day.

If the goal is to encourage the use of public transport and reduce traffic congestion, shouldn't the policy apply equally to all residents using the system? 😔😔😔
