Background

Ms Kwong, from Hong Kong, applied with her husband and two children. She wanted EU permanent residence for the family.

Due diligence required many documents, and she worried about gaps.

Our approach

We worked closely with Malta’s licensed agent and organised every document due diligence required.

Process and outcome

She passed due diligence and received residence cards in about 10 months.

Adviser’s comment

Malta requires a licensed agent, so how well the agent and consultant work together directly affects progress.

Malta MPRP application process

  1. Assessment and documents (1–2 months): We assess your assets and family members and prepare the documents.
  2. Application and due diligence (Several months): Apply through a licensed agent and undergo due diligence.
  3. Approval in principle and property (Within 8 months): After approval in principle, buy or rent the property and make the payments.
  4. Permanent residence card (After approval): Collect your residence card once all requirements are met.

FAQ

What is the difference between renting and buying?

The government contribution is the same. Renting keeps more capital liquid; buying gives you an asset, which must be held for at least five years.

Do I need to live in Malta?

There is no minimum stay requirement, but you must keep the property.

Can I apply myself?

No. Applications must be made through a licensed agent approved by Residency Malta Agency.
