“Malta? Where exactly is that?”
Not so long ago, that would probably have been the reaction of many South Africans.
For years, the more familiar choices for moving abroad were places like the UK and Australia. Malta simply wasn’t one of the destinations that came to mind.
But that is changing…..
Over the past 6–7 years, more South Africans have started looking at Malta not only as somewhere to live, but as a place to build a business, raise a family and create a base in Europe.
So, what is drawing people to this small Mediterranean island?
English is widely spoken, the climate is warm, the sea is never far away, and the lifestyle can compare favourably with some of the more traditional destinations.
Malta also offers a number of residency programmes for individuals, families and investors, depending on their circumstances.
For business owners and entrepreneurs, there is the opportunity to establish a company and create a European base while operating internationally.
Add a favourable tax environment and a growing South African community, and it becomes easier to understand why Malta is appearing on more people’s radar.
Malta may still be unfamiliar to many South Africans.
But perhaps the question is changing from “Where is Malta?” to “Could Malta work for me?”
