How to Pay Low Taxes in Malta as a Non-Dom

[@Aidan_Au]

Malta has a great EU passport and Nomad Capitalist has talked about it often. Thank you Jelena and R&D team :)

[@savebandit99]

Under the non-EU non-dom, the 15,000 euro per calendar year tax allows you to bring 100,000 euros of foreign source income into Malta at no tax. Foreign income brought in above that amount is taxed at 15%.

[@josephfisher7709]

The video does not explain whether income from remote work with clients outside Malta is considered foreign or Maltese-sourced, so it is unclear whether this information is relevant to most remote workers

[@savebandit99]

You can check with Maltese advisors, but you will likely find, income earned from work done inside Malta is taxed in Malta.

[@savebandit99]

taxed at 35%

where can I find the official source? i thought that was 15,000€ instead of 5,000€ as minimum taxation

[@desertbluesplaylist7550]

Yes €15,000 is what I've seen too - not €5k

[@Golby88]

Yes for the global residence programme it is 15,000 euros meaning for non-EU/EEA/Swiss However for Europeans, the Swiss and EEA member countries the flat tax is 5000 euros and it is only applicable for residents with a yearly income above 35,000 euros. If you are below that you don't even have to pay the fee

[@ricasco]

@Golby88 thanks for the info!where can I find something official related to what you wrote in your comment? It’s very interesting, I’m a freelancer and at the moment I earn less than 35k€ annually, so I’m quite interested to understand the fiscal setup for me in Malta

[@stanisgmi]

If the money is earned from a while ago and remitted to Malta - is 15% paid on that?

[@eranb66]

If all my income is only capital gains, dividends, interest etc., do I still need the non-dom tax status, or does Malta not tax them either way?

[@MrSniganoo]

Still not clear on remittance. If I don't have a Maltese bank account but use my foreign earned income to fund my living in Malta (using ATM's for cash or using a credit card to pay for things) is that considered remittance?

[@stephenwilliams399]

Yes, that is considered a remittance of income

[@MrSniganoo]

@@stephenwilliams399in that case how can people live without remittance in Malta? You have to rent somewhere to live and use a debit card or credit card to buy groceries or just spend money while in the country.

[@RomilCPatel]

@@MrSniganoo People remit but pay tax on what they remit

[@stanisgmi]

@@RomilCPatelwhat if the source is capital gains? Or savings

[@RomilCPatel]

For capital gains you don’t have to pay to remit. I’m not sure about savings though since that’s technically money already made in previous years

[@loyoutub]

If I am French, That I live more than 183 days in Malta, That I have a non-resident status By living in an apartment that I bought, And that I can live In Malta for 10 years only with the savings that I have accumulated on my salary for 40 years, without touching the salary that I currently receive in France or the pension that I will receive in a few years when retired, should I pay 0 taxes or €5000 or 15% of my income in France? Thanks for your answer.

[@NomadCapitalistRD]

[@micomarinas2753]

how about remitting capital gains from cryptocurrency going to maltese bank account, what kind of legal tax manuever that is applicable for avoiding tax legally?

[@marcusd9192]

Its tax free assuming the disposal will be classified as a capital gain. To be considered a capital gain depends on how long you held the asset and how frequently you trade like assets.

[@carlwereld5131]

what if I stay less then 183 in malta But I have a home and bankaccounts in malta Am i then still a malta taxresident

[@peterpeter8217]

No

[@Jesus-ve4io]

No. 183 days are necessary

[@christiaanhom4506]

Isn't it 15k instead of 5k?

[@stephenwilliams399]

On an ordinary residency it's 5k min tax if you choose to be taxed as a non dom.

[@plizak]

Second!
