That's a better deal than Andorra for businesses with high profit margins.
Have an employee there (cheap), establish an economic substance, and no EU country can appropriate the company with CFC rules, you can reside anywhere. No need for residency visa and waiting months for permissions, freedom to move around.
Reside in Malta, pay yourself dividends, never transfer them directly to Malta, and pay ~6% total tax.
Seems too good to be true though. Is this it︀ or am I missing something?

You are just missing some bureaucracy obligations that can be annoying to deal with, mostly in the first year.
Several visits to the local tax office to submit some documents for VAT registration etc. (In case your accountant don't want to do that)
And the monthly accounting is also something that not everybody is used to also requirement to print and keep your accounting data.
I would suggest an accountant, but for few invoices smartbill can be enough to do it yourself.
There are several things that will cost you money and time on the way.
And I don't have any idea about your plan︀ with malta, but if you are not resident according to that video you have to︁ pay 16% instead.

That's no big deal for me. If︂ the costs are fixed and not a percentage of profit, I'm fine with that. Thanks︃ for your info.
I wanted Malta to cash out dividends periodically (non-dom regime will grant︄ me 0% capital gains tax). If it's the 16% withholding I'll have to accumulate and︅ move to Romania after a few years to cash out to get 5% only. Not︆ as convenient but better than giving up 50% where I live right now.

Hi, do you know anything about Bulgaria's 183 day stay resident requirement? How︀ can i avoid that and still be considered a resident of Bulgaria for tax purposes︁
