Corporate Tax
35% flat on company profits. There is no separate corporation tax. From the FITWI rules published in 2025, an entity can elect 15% on chargeable income for at least five years; that tax is final and gives no imputation refund. 18
Dividend Withholding Tax
No withholding on dividends paid to non-residents. Malta uses full imputation, so the tax is the 35% already charged on the company. A 15% withholding can apply to a distribution of untaxed income to a resident individual, and in a few related cases. 20
Tax System
People who are both domiciled and ordinarily resident are taxed on worldwide income. Someone ordinarily resident but not domiciled is taxed on Malta-source income and on foreign income received in Malta, not on foreign capital gains. Non-residents are taxed only on Malta-source income and gains. 17
Highest Income Tax Bracket
35% on chargeable income over €60,000 (2026). For a single person the first €12,000 is taxed at 0%. 17
VAT
18% standard VAT. A reduced 7% applies to eligible accommodation, and 5% to electricity and some other supplies. 19
Controlled Foreign Company (CFC) Rules
Yes. Malta's ATAD rules have applied since 1 January 2019. A foreign entity is a CFC when a Malta resident holds more than 50% and the foreign tax is lower than the Malta tax that would have been charged. 21
Property Tax
No annual tax on owning a home, and no wealth tax. Tax on property is charged when it is transferred. 19
Property Transaction Tax
The buyer pays stamp duty of 5% on the higher of price or real value. The seller generally pays a final withholding tax of 8% of the transfer value (10% if the property was acquired before 1 January 2004). Other rates apply in some cases. 19
Attractive Tax System for Digital Nomads
Nomad Residence Permit holders pay 10% on authorised remote-work income, and that income is generally exempt in the first year. New applicants need €42,000 a year gross. Fees are €300 per person plus €100 for the card. This is not a zero-tax regime; other income follows the normal rules. 17 43
