马耳他入籍新政对比解析
Hello大家好,我是马耳他PKF公司的亚洲商务代表,借此机会代表马耳他PKF 公司祝大家在新的一年身体健康,万事如意,也谢谢大家这些年来一如既往的支持和信任。 2020年11月20号马耳他官方正式发布的2020年第437号法律公告,《杰出者投资入籍政策》此项政策将取代2014年推出的《马耳他个人投资者计划》在新的政策下,还是有几点变化,今天就跟大家分享一下几点主要的变化: 1. 设立新的办理审核机构(Community Malta Agency) | 负责管理和处理所有马耳他公民身份相关事宜。新机构将会对申请人进行严格的尽职调查,授予其公民身份以及在得到公民身份后的5年中对其行进监察。 2. 放宽子女年龄上的限制,经济上依赖于主申请人呢或者配偶的未婚子女,年龄上限调整为29岁,旧政策下年龄限制为27岁。 3. 增加居住要求,并提供2种选择方案,标准申请通道和快速申请通道 1): 标准申请通道要求在马耳他居住满3年并向政府捐资60万欧,即可申请入籍 2): 快速申请通道要求在马耳他居住满1年并向政府捐资75万欧,即可申请入籍 4. 提高购买或租赁房产的金额 新政策下还是要求在马耳他租赁或者购买房产, 只是在金额上有所变化 1): 购买房产——要求在马耳他当地购买一套价值最低70万欧的房产(是旧政策下购买房产金额的2倍) 2): 租赁房产——要求在马耳他当地租赁一套年租金最低1.6万欧并持租5年(与旧政策相同) 5. 增加公益捐款: 主申请人需承诺在入籍证书签发之前,向注册的慈善、文化、体育、科学、动物福利或艺术等非政府组织或社会捐赠至少1万欧。 6. 取消国债投资要求: 旧政策下要求投资15万欧元并持有5年。 新政策中取消了对于国债投资上的要求。 7申请名额的限制: 新政策下每年通过杰出者投资入籍项目获得公民身份的配额不得超过400,并且所有成功申请的累积总数不得超过1500个家庭。 从最新的政策变化可以看出,马耳他投资入籍比之前更难了,每一条变化都切中要害,增加居住要求,提升投资金额,限制和缩小入籍名额以及更严格的尽职调查都在暗示获取马耳他的护照更加艰难,护照中的爱马仕也不是随便所说而已。面向全球的名额也就1500个,每年限制400个,先到先得,想要获得马耳他护照现在就是最好时机。 以上就是今天跟大家分享的主要内容,感谢大家的宝贵时间,如有更多的细节以及其他更关注的问题,欢迎跟我们联系,再次祝大家2021年牛气冲天,牛运亨通,心想事成,谢谢! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/bitpod/message
