MALTA CITIZENSHIP BY INVESTMENT
Malta is a small nation located in the Mediterranean Sea, strategically located between Sicily in Southern Europe and Libya and Tunisia in Northern Africa. Malta is comprised of three small islands – Malta itself, Comino (a tiny island Northwest of Malta) and finally Gozo, a slightly larger (though still significantly smaller than Malta) island that sits Northwest of Comino.
Malta has been inhabited since 5900 BC and as such, has a deep-rooted heritage that spans centuries, with its capital, Valletta, being an official World Heritage City and a European Capital of Culture. Due to such a long-standing history, Malta bears the influence of several civilizations including the Phoenicians, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, and Normans, which makes its culture incredibly varied and textured.
With warm and sunny weather throughout most of the year, Malta is a magnet for both tourists and expats looking to enjoy the Mediterranean lifestyle. Since joining the European Union in 2004, Malta has benefitted from strong economic ties and open borders with other EU nations, making it an attractive prospect for investors looking for a strategic location between Europe and Africa, and visa-free travel to the entire Schengen Area, as well as the USA, Canada and Australia. Malta is an ideal destination for those seeking a secondary passport in a beautiful and historic nation; offering a quick and efficient Citizenship by Investment Programme.
