Company Incorporation and Servicing Expertise
We draw on over 35 years’ experience in company incorporation and company servicing, complemented by the services of an affiliated legal firm for clients who require legal expertise in customising the memorandum and articles of association to suit their business and operational requirements.
Company Registration Process in Malta
In Malta, the company registration process is relatively straightforward, with a centralised registry – the Registry of Companies. Our services include the drafting of the memorandum and articles of association, provision of local registered office facilities (a requirement for all Maltese companies), assistance in the opening of a bank account for the deposit of initial share capital, and filing of necessary documentation at the Registry of Companies on the clients’ behalf.
Partnerships, Foundations, and Multi-Jurisdictional Support
We can also assist clients with the establishment of partnerships and other legal persons such as foundations. Our well-established relationships with firms in a number of other jurisdictions enable us to assist clients where a presence in more than one jurisdiction is required.
Redomiciliation of Foreign Companies to Malta
Another aspect which may be of interest is that Malta has passed legislation which allows companies incorporated in other jurisdictions to redomicile and continue operating from Malta. We are able to draw on experience in redomiciling companies from a number of jurisdictions to Malta.
Requirements for Redomiciliation
The Registrar of Companies will allow a company incorporated in an approved jurisdiction to redomicile in Malta provided that regulatory requirements are met.
Redomiciliation Services
Our services include the adaptation of the constitutive documents of the company to meet the Maltese requirements for a memorandum and articles of association under the Companies Act, drafting of necessary resolutions and declarations as required by the Regulations, assistance in filing necessary documents at the Malta Business Registry on the client’s behalf, and liaising with corresponding firms handling the outward process from the company’s original jurisdiction.
Redomiciliation of Maltese Companies to Other Jurisdictions
Maltese legislation also provides for the redomiciliation of Maltese companies to other eligible jurisdictions, and we can assist with this process in accordance with the requirements from the Maltese side.
Alternative to Redomiciliation: Transfer of Tax Residency
Where redomiciliation is not possible, we can assist foreign companies to transfer their tax residency to Malta while retaining their original, foreign registration.
