- Power of attorney to the agency
The first step is to provide the agency and a representative agent with a Power of Attorney, and they will then work on your behalf, submitting the documents and completing the application process.
Establishing residency in Malta
The agency will prepare the application documents and then submit the form with due diligence. They will complete the application completely error-free and work to obtain police clearance. The Community Malta Agency (CMA) performs a Tier 1 due diligence and obtains police clearance. They will perform the same for the applicant’s dependents as well. Once the residency is approved, the applicant will receive a permanent residence card.
- Citizenship eligibility
The agency will submit the Citizenship Eligibility application to an agency known as the Community Malta Agency once the residency card is issued. This must be done within 12 months of receiving the residency card, or it will be deemed invalid. The government agency will conduct a Tier 3 and Tier 4 due diligence. And then present the same to them. The agency will inform our agency of the Minister’s decision to see whether the applicant is eligible to apply for Maltese citizenship.
- Apply for citizenship
The agency will next present the citizenship application to the CMA, with due diligence and submit the final findings to the Minister. The agency will inform the Minister’s decision on whether the applicant can be granted Maltese citizenship. This is an important step in the Malta Citizenship By Investment Program.
- Fulfil investment requirements
In the 5th step, the applicant will fulfil the investment requirement, provided of course, the application is approved and the citizenship is granted.
- The Oath of Allegiance
The applicant can visit Malta upon invitation and take the Oath of Allegiance. The applicant will be:
- Granted Maltese citizenship
- Get certificate of Naturalisation
- Obtain Maltese Passport
Our agency will submit an annual compliance form to The Community Malta Agency. They will then do continuous monitoring for five years after the applicant receives the citizenship.
