About Malta

Malta is the EU's hub for iGaming, crypto and fintech, offering full EU passporting rights and a corporate tax structure that's often misunderstood, so here's exactly how it works: the company pays Malta's standard 35% corporate tax in full first, not a reduced rate upfront. When profits are distributed as dividends, shareholders who are not themselves Maltese tax residents can then claim a refund of six-sevenths of the tax the company paid — bringing the net effective rate down to around 5%, but as a refund process with its own timeline, not as a rate applied automatically at source. This full-imputation system has been formally reviewed and accepted as compliant by the EU and OECD (it's published in Malta's Income Tax Act, not a workaround), and for the 2026 global minimum tax rules, it only changes anything for large multinational groups above the €750 million revenue threshold — the vast majority of founders incorporating with us are well under that and see no difference. English-speaking with a robust regulatory framework, Malta is the licensing home of choice for gaming and blockchain businesses.
