Malta is increasingly being regarded as an optimal destination, not only by tourists and travellers but increasingly by High Net Worth Individuals (HNWI) and retirees looking for a good quality of life. Numerous individuals are attracted to the tiny archipelago and relocate to Malta every year. Primarily, Malta is the perfect location to expand business, to retire with peace of mind, and relocate with the family in the smoothest way possible. After all, the islands have plenty to offer- a typically Mediterranean climate, great history, culture, a prosperous economy and a multilingual population. Along with an abundance of lifestyle benefits, Malta provides for a number of programmes whereby individuals may obtain tax residency in Malta or alternatively Maltese citizenship. All the residence and citizenship programmes offered have one element in common, that is, the purchase or rental of an immovable property situated in the islands of Malta or Gozo.
