Malta’s Residency Options at a Glance: Solutions for Global Migrants
The Residency Malta Agency, led by CEO Jonathan Cardona, outlines the key benefits Malta offers for families, digital nomads, as well as start-up founders.
The world is witnessing a significant surge in global migration, with high- net-worth individuals from countries facing economic challenges seeking alternative jurisdictions to safeguard their future. The value of freedom of movement has gained newfound significance in the wake of the Covid pandemic’s restrictive periods. Additionally, as remote work has become the norm, digital nomads and remote workers have discovered the ability to work from anywhere while maintaining their employment and business ties to their home country.
These remarkable shifts and trends are creating a growing demand for economic mobility and solutions that facilitate the relocation of families and businesses. Residency Malta has stepped in to provide answers and solutions to meet these evolving needs.
Malta’s Appeal
People considering relocating to a new country often have specific motivations. The desire to provide a better future for their families is a common driving force. Healthcare, education, and safety are key concerns for prospective immigrants, and Malta excels in these areas. The country is known for its safe environment, reputable educational opportunities, and top-notch healthcare services. Despite its multicultural community, Malta’s societal values are deeply rooted in family, and its small size fosters a close-knit community. The added benefit of English as an official language makes communication effortless.
From a business perspective, Malta offers a robust jurisdiction with a diverse economy, access to the European market, a pro-business environment, and support from government entities. Daily air and sea connections to Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East, along with excellent telecommunications infrastructure, make it an ideal hub for businesses. Malta Enterprise, the government’s economic development agency, provides funding support for start-ups, and the country’s small size is perfect for testing new products and services.
For digital nomads, Malta presents a unique opportunity to experience diverse cultures and histories, make friends, enjoy the pleasant climate and outdoor activities, meet like-minded individuals, and work from anywhere using the abundant public Wi-Fi hotspots.
