13处变更！马耳他移民局递案要求都改了些什么？

1.  经济依附认定

The Main Applicant must prove to the Agency's satisfaction that at the time of submission of the application, the adult dependant cannot live a self-sufficient basic independent life without the Main Applicant's support.

Adult dependants having an accumulated wealth and/or sufficient income arising from, but not limited to, corporate affiliations through significant shareholding and/or holding legal positions, top roles or any other role in the corporation,financial assets, properties and reasonable economic activity or employment, would not be eligible to apply for the MPRP Programme, even if the main applicant would be contributing further to enable the dependant to lead a better lifestyle.

2.  金融资产认定

No, they are not permissible. 

These should be liquid assets like stocks, bonds, publicly listed/traded shares, funds and bank deposits.

3.  申请人公司持股文件要求

If main applicant’s shareholding exceeds 10% of the total shareholding in a publicly listed company, the company documents are required. 

4.  自雇申请文件要求

In the case of business ownership, whether in part or in full, evidence is required whatever the declared employment status of the applicant. 

Originals or Certified true copies of the following documents, or their jurisdictional equivalent, are to be provided for all businesses owned in part or in whole:

• certificate of incorporation.

• memorandum and articles of association.

• share register.

• register of directors.

In those cases where the official extract from the National company registry of the applicable jurisdiction contains all the relevant details, including incorporation information, list of shareholders, registered and paid capital including dates, and the list of directors and/or all legal persons, this extract can be submitted instead of the above documents.

Depending on the jurisdiction, documents can, at times, be titled in a different manner but would still hold jurisdictional equivalence.

When this occurs, a declaration is required stipulating such differences in titles.

If you are not sure whether the official extract or any of the document satisfies the required criteria, it is suggested that you seek advice from the Agency’s customer care department before submitting the application pack.

6.  宣誓MPRP1表格

Yes, Form MPRP1 is the only form which requires the signature of the Commissioner for Oaths. However, it is also possible to certify Form MPRP1 via a licensed agent who will verify the applicant’s identity via digital software made available by Residency Malta.

7.  移民申请费用支付

Payments to settle any fees should only be made by direct debit from the bank account as declared by the main applicant in Form MPRP 2 on submission of application.

The following payment methods are not accepted by Residency Malta Agency :

- Payments via debit/credit cards;

- Payments via virtual payment platforms (e.g. Paypal);

- Payments in cryptocurrency.

Debit/Credit card payments are only accepted for processing fee payments for the issuance or renewal of a residence card to Identity Malta.

8.  申请人健康要求

The requirement is that the individual must be completely free from the contagious disease to be eligible for the programme. Hence, as an example, an individual who is clinically fit and does not suffer from any acute or serious pathology but is in Hepatitis B carrier state with low infectivity, he would still be harbouring a contagious condition and for this reason he is medically not eligible to qualify for the Malta Residency programme.

For avoidance of doubt, it is strongly suggested that such situations are clarified with the Agency before submitting the application. This is because if at a later stage it results that the Main Applicant is not eligible, this alone would already result in the application

not being approved. If the non-eligibility pertains only to a dependant(s) , the dependent(s) will not be approved as part of the application.

In all cases, the Agency’s decision as to whether an individual is to be considered as medically eligible or not is final.

9.  马耳他的税务优惠

The MPRP doesn’t carry any tax grants and/or incentives. The applicable Maltese statutory tax provisions apply to this status.

Nonetheless as a general principle, the basic statutory provisions lay down that Maltese tax for non-Maltese-domiciled individuals is imposed on:

i. all chargeable income and capital gains arising in Malta, and on chargeable income arising outside Malta that is remitted to Malta in the case of an individual who is resident in Malta, and

ii. only chargeable income and capital gains arising in Malta in the case of an individual who is not resident in Malta.

An exception to the above principles applies in the case of individuals holding certain rights under the Status of Long-Term Residents (Third Country Nationals) Regulations and the Free Movement of European Union Nationals and their Family Members Order, who would remain chargeable on a worldwide basis. However given that the MPRP does not of itself grant such rights, MPRP holders' basic tax position should be governed by the general principles set out in the preceding paragraph.

Of course every individual would need to determine the tax treatment applicable in his/ her specific situation and thus it is strongly recommended that the advice of a tax consultant be sought.

10.  马耳他的公立教育

No, under the MPRP a minor is not entitled to free education. However, if the main applicant or spouse acquires a work permit in Malta, his/her children can apply for an exemption of fees under the applicable single work permit legislation (SL 217.17) and the Education Act.
