USAGE OF POPULAR COMPANIES IN MALTA

A Maltese VAT company acts for general trading purposes due to its unique tax regime. When dividends are paid from a trading company to its non-resident shareholder, that shareholder is entitled to claim refund at the 35% tax rate paid by the company. 6/7 of the tax amount is returned to the non-resident shareholder. As a result, the general rate is reduced to 5%.

Refunds are guaranteed and paid by the Internal Revenue Department to shareholders 14 days after the application is submitted.
