Jurisdiction Malta

Malta, in the heart of the Mediterranean, lies in the archipelago consisting of Malta, Gozo, and Comino. Malta, the largest island, is located some 100 km off the coast of the Italian island of Sicily. Malta’s proximity to various markets and easy accessibility makes Malta very attractive to international business opportunities.

Malta has a stable economy and political environment. It also has dedicated legislation, real tax efficiency, and a modern legal and business climate. Malta’s financial market is sound and open to foreign competition. The overall freedom to start and operate a business here is relatively well protected by the national regulatory environment.

Malta has enacted a fiscal and legislative framework with specific emphasis on sectors such as e-commerce, e-gaming, and banking. In May of 2004, Malta officially became a member of the European Union (EU). This is beneficial to international companies because this allows any Maltese-registered company to freely trade under the “passport” system; any license issued by the Maltese government is automatically recognized in the other EU member states.

In Malta, a Private Limited Company can be established and managed. The set up of a Maltese Company, all in compliance with EU regulations, offers substantial tax incentives and other advantages to shareholders. In addition, this entity offers complete anonymity.

There are few requirements for the establishment of a Maltese Private Limited Company. A Maltese Company can perform any kind of activity, be it trading, holding, or investments.
