The Maltese Program is a Residency by Investment Program that may lead to Citizenship, given that an investor/applicant is successfully eligible to acquire Maltese Nationality. This is subject to a stringent due diligence process and the approval of the Minister responsible for Citizenship. There is a capping of a maximum of four hundred (400) cases per year for a total of one thousand five hundred cases over a period of three years.
The re-engineered Program provides investors with two possible routes to Citizenship, the first one following twelve months and another after thirty-six months. Families, including parents-in-law, grandparents, and dependents not exceeding the twenty-nine years age bracket, are eligible to apply. Applicants are expected to satisfy the relevant criteria up to and including residing in Malta for a period and investing €10,000 in a local voluntary organization. Residency permits are being issued with an eligibility period of three years.
