Malta to overhaul corporate tax⁤ regime by 2025 in major policy shift​

Malta’s corporate tax regime is in for a⁣ major overhaul and the new structure and rates will be adopted for the basis year⁢ 2025, Finance Minister Clyde Caruana says​

Cassola proposes equal corporate taxation︀ for local and foreign companies in Malta​

With the recent publication of a new legal︁ notice transposing the EU directive on corporate taxation into Maltese law, Cassola’s proposition seeks to︂ address the existing tax rate disparities that have long been a point of contention for︃ business lobbies and tax justice campaigners.
Cassola condemned the prevailing situation wherein Maltese companies face︄ a 35% tax rate on their profits, while foreign counterparts often benefit from rebates, ultimately︅ paying as little as 5%.

In any case, pressure from the EU is very strong.︆ Also in light of the fact that a "domiciled Maltese" pays 35% cit which is︇ madness, while the non-dom pays 5%.
The fun is over and a cit between 10%/15%︈ is presumed?
Furthermore, see also the new EU directive on shell companies... 99% of holding︉ companies requesting reimbursement...


Everyone knows that the game will end sooner or later, in fact︊ they are also right to squeeze in as much as they can at this point.︋

 
Another piece added to the puzzle.

The European Court of Justice on Tuesday said Malta‌ needs to end its golden passport programme that allows wealthy foreigners to buy citizenship, as‍ it infringes EU law.

We will see at the end of the year if⁠ there will be updates on the full imputation system if they keep it for how⁤ long.
 
Well without the golden passport scheme it will become very difficult to shift the 1m‌ euro plus properties being sold in the SDA's.

Such as this property below.

There is a whole real estate market built around the golden passport across Malta in the‍ SDA's. Without a replacement the property bubble may indeed burst at the high end very⁠ quickly.
 
Yeah, that’s also what⁠ I feel like I’ve been reading a lot about, but still, housing prices keep rising⁤ dramatically every year in the capitals, and the average wage earner doesn’t stand a chance⁣ of affording rent or buying a home.
 
I've already started hearing about gaming betting companies getting laid off because of AI.
And think that the main models need 4/5 months and hundreds of millions of dollars every‌ time. Even a fine-tuning or incremental training can take a couple of months.

Tick Tock.‍
