What is the Malta Permanent Residency Programme (MPRP)?

The MPRP is a fast-track programme for non-EU individuals looking at Permanent Residency in Malta, one of Europe’s most dynamic economies. This well-structured program grants successful applicants and their families permanent residency status for life, with access to a secure, high-quality European lifestyle.

As a result, the successful applicant and family members can stay indefinitely in Malta while enjoying lifetime access to all Schengen countries. The program is unique among Golden Visas since it provides Permanent Residency from the start, that is once all process is successfully completed, thus avoiding tedious renewals. The program also has no minimum physical stay requirements in Malta.

Malta’s Permanent Residence Programme offers a straightforward and flexible route to permanent residency through a combination of real estate and financial contributions. Applicants may choose to either rent or purchase a qualifying property in Malta. The MPRP remains one of the most efficient and transparent residence-by-investment options in Europe.

The MPRP is administered by the Residency Malta Agency (RMA), and applications by interested individuals must be made through a Licenced Agent as approved by RMA.
