@ptyler2608:
I have to go to work tomorrow.
(明日仕事に行かなきゃいけない)
I need to go to work tomorrow.
(明日仕事に行く必要がある)
Does it make sense?

Yes! Thank you :)
Is there a shorter way to say "行かなきゃいけない" (I have to go to....). It's quite difficult to say, and I haven't overheard it very much.

@ptyler2608:
〜に行かないといけない。
(I think we usually say this form)
〜に行かなければなりません。
(This form is very polite. You can use it to your boss or superiors and writing like essays)
〜に行かないと!
(I think this form is a shorter way. But this is casual so you can use it to your family or friends. ex: 仕事に行かないと!)
By the way, my personal opinion... 行かなきゃいけない sounds a little casual, so you can use it to your family or friends.
Hope that helps:)

@Kanako107 That's incredible, thank you so much. :)
One of the problems (or confusions) that I have is that I'm living in Kobe, so the speech here seems to be more casual than in Tokyo. So, I didn't know if "行かなきゃいけない " was too polite. Thank you for explaining :).

@ptyler2608:
行かなきゃいけない is a little casual not polite :) I'm living in Hyogo too and yeah Kansai dialect sounds a little casual than standard Japanese (Tokyo)! But I think Kansai dialect is better than standard Japanese. haha
You're welcome. It's my pleasure!
