The MPRP is Malta's flagship residence-by-investment route, granting permanent residence to non-EU nationals through a fixed combination of a government contribution, a qualifying property, an NGO donation and an administrative fee, all behind strict due diligence.
The Malta Permanent Residence Programme, administered by the Residency Malta Agency, grants permanent residence to non-EU/EEA/Swiss individuals and their qualifying dependants through investment. It combines four fixed elements: a qualifying property (either purchased at or above the set minimum value, or leased at or above the set minimum annual rent, held for at least five years), a government contribution (lower when the property is purchased rather than rented), a donation to a registered Maltese NGO, and a non-refundable administrative fee with per-dependant amounts.
Applicants must show the required level of assets and stable resources, and must clear rigorous multi-tier due diligence. Applications are filed through a licensed agent rather than directly, which is a defining feature of the programme.
Because the exact thresholds are set in law and revised periodically, the precise figures change over time, so confirm current numbers on residencymalta.gov.mt before acting. It is also worth noting that if your goal was citizenship rather than residence, Malta's former citizenship-by-direct-investment scheme is no longer available after a 2025 EU court ruling, but the MPRP remains in place for permanent residence. ACME can help you assess your assets and background against the MPRP conditions and coordinate the licensed-agent filing.
