Benefits of Malta Residency

Permits issued to the main applicant, spouse, dependent children under 27 and dependent parents. All included family members receive resident status at the same time. Low cost of processing and relatively small investment compared to other European residency programmes. The Malta Permanent Residence Program was launched in March 2021, by virtue of Legal Notice 121 of 2021. The regulations provide investors the opportunity to apply for Maltese residence once they meet the investment criteria outlined.

Malta is a neutral, safe and stable country in the Mediterranean with a high quality of life.

VISA-FREE Travel Within the 27 Schengen member states

Spouse, dependent children under 26 years of age and dependent parents can be included.
