Key Benefits of the Malta Ordinary Residence Scheme
Malta offers a favourable tax framework for individuals who are ordinarily resident but not domiciled in Malta.
No Tax on Foreign Capital Gains
Capital gains arising outside Malta are not subject to Maltese tax, regardless of whether they are remitted to Malta.
Remittance Basis of Taxation
Foreign income is only taxable in Malta to the extent it is received in or remitted to Malta, providing control over your tax liability.
Competitive Tax Rates
Income arising in Malta is subject to tax at progressive rates, with a structured framework that supports effective tax planning.
No Wealth Tax
Malta does not impose any wealth tax, inheritance tax, or estate duty, making it attractive for high-net-worth individuals.
