Tax Benefits

Malta is renowned for its attractive tax benefits, making it an enticing destination for individuals and businesses. The country offers a non-domiciled tax system, which means that non-residents and non-domiciled individuals can enjoy significant tax advantages. This system allows foreign residents to pay tax only on income earned within Malta, with income earned abroad typically remaining tax-free. Additionally, Malta’s network of double taxation treaties ensures that individuals and businesses can minimize their global tax liabilities. With a competitive corporate tax rate and various incentives for foreign investors, including tax refunds, tax credits, and fiscal benefits for specific industries, Malta’s tax regime is a key driver for international businesses and individuals seeking tax-efficient solutions.

Political Stability

Malta prides itself on a long-standing tradition of political stability and a well-established democratic system. As a member of the European Union and the Commonwealth, the country adheres to democratic principles, the rule of law, and good governance. The political landscape is characterized by a multiparty system, fostering a healthy and transparent political environment. This stability and commitment to democratic values make Malta an appealing destination for businesses and individuals seeking a secure and predictable setting in which to invest, work, and reside.

How to Obtain Malta Citizenship

Citizenship Application Process

The process for obtaining Maltese citizenship through the Migrate World program involves several key steps. It starts with an initial consultation where options are presented, followed by preliminary and internal checks to assess eligibility and ensure a clean record. Agreement and fee discussions cover legal fees, due diligence fees, government fees, and application fees. Choosing a suitable Maltese property is essential for the residence permit application. After meeting the criteria, the residence permit is issued quickly.

The next phases involve document collection, translation, and authentication, as well as completing application forms and medical check-ups. The application is then prepared and submitted within approximately 1-2 months. Subsequently, the main applicant must meet investment criteria within about 4 months upon receiving the Letter of Approval in Principle. Finally, upon satisfaction of these criteria, the applicant and their family are invited to take the oath of allegiance, and each receives a Certificate of Naturalization and a Maltese Passport. This thorough process ensures a smooth pathway to Maltese citizenship.

Investment Requirements

The Malta Citizenship by Investment program presents applicants with three distinct avenues to attain citizenship. These include making a contribution to Malta’s development, acquiring a property valued at a minimum of €700,000, leasing one for at least €16,000 per year, and donating to a non-governmental organization (NGO). These options offer flexibility to individuals seeking Maltese citizenship.
