Malta Permanent Resident Program
The Malta Permanent Residence Programme (MPRP) was launched in 2021 to replace the Malta Residence Visa Programme(MRVP). The MPRP is a residency-by-investment program that provides permanent residency in Malta to foreigners investing in real estate. The permanent residency does not lead to citizenship,as the naturalization process is not straightforward in Malta. The MPRP requires the applicant to buy or rent a property in Malta and donate at least 70,000 EUR to the state fund and NGOs.
