Company Formation and Management

Malta has the geographical advantage of being situated in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, at a crossroads between Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. The island offers a fully developed open market economy, and has a hardworking and multilingual population, with English being an official language of Malta. It also offers a corporate tax regime that in certain cases is extremely beneficial for shareholders.

Leveraging on these advantages, we design and establish Maltese holding and trading companies, backed by full management support, including accounting, reporting, compliance, and secretarial services.

Our Services

Malta’s strategic position within the EU, combined with a pro‑business environment and efficient regulatory framework, makes it an interesting choice for international enterprises and founders. From name reservation and drafting constitutional documentation, to submission, registration, and liaising with the Malta Business Registry, Dixcart Malta can handle each step on company formation.

Our Malta office can assist with:

  • Company registration: preparation and submission of all necessary documents, obtaining permits, certificates and licenses.
  • Corporate secretarial: documentation and reporting, and compliance.
  • Multi-jurisdiction: domiciliation of the company to Malta, and the use of Maltese companies in combination with other jurisdictions.

Our team manages the ongoing obligations of your Maltese company, including:

  • Statutory accounting and tax filings
  • Secretarial services and regulatory compliance
  • Annual returns and financial reporting
  • Director and board services where required

We can assist with the opening of corporate bank accounts and coordinate with financial institutions on your behalf, ensuring a smooth setup and financial operations from day one.

Why establish a company in Malta?

A Strategic EU Base – Malta’s membership in the EU and Schengen Area provides access to the single market and a stable regulatory framework which is ideal for companies with cross‑border ambitions.

A Competitive Tax Framework – While the standard corporate tax rate is 35%, Malta’s full imputation system often delivers a low effective tax rate (frequently as low as 5% for active income and 10% for passive income) through tax refunds to non‑resident shareholders. An optional regime with a 15% flat corporate tax offers additional flexibility for business operations.

No Withholding on Dividends – Malta does not withhold tax on dividend distributions, whether to EU or non‑EU jurisdictions, which accelerates efficient profit repatriation.

Extensive Double Tax Treaty Network – With a network of over 70 double taxation agreements, Malta helps reduce the risk of international tax leakage and supports global operating structures.

Flexible Structures & Incentives – From traditional holdings to specialised setups including intellectual property holding companies, Malta’s regime supports efficient asset protection, profit repatriation, and tax planning.

Whether you are establishing a Maltese company or looking for ongoing support for an existing structure Dixcart Malta offers practical, hands‑on expertise at every stage. Our local team works closely with you to ensure your company is efficiently structured, fully compliant and professionally managed, while benefiting from Malta’s robust regulatory framework and international reputation.
