Immigration

immigration

Nestled in a strategic geographical location, Malta offers a desirable setting with its Mediterranean climate, strong security, connectivity, and appealing standard of living. The island’s employment and commercial prospects, coupled with a business-friendly tax system and status as a Schengen country, attract both EU and non-EU citizens looking to relocate.

Our specialised team can help you and your family with your move and making sure that you are compliant with all the relevant rules.

Does this apply to you?

For EU/EEA/Swiss national considering stays over 90 days in Malta, obtaining a Maltese residence permit reflecting your immigration position may be necessary.

If you are a third country national (i.e., not an EU/EEA/Swiss national), you will likely require authorisation/permits before entering. Additional permits/licences may be required depending on the purpose of your stay in Malta.


What are the different types of residence permits?

Residence permit eligibility broadly depends on the purpose of your stay in Malta and your long-term objectives. Our team of professionals can advise on applications that align with your current and future plans, considering all relevant tax implications both in Malta and internationally.

EU/EEA/Swiss nationals can reside in Malta under grounds such as:

Similar residence grounds may also be available for third-country nationals under certain circumstances.
