Unlock Your Future with the Malta Global Residence Program 🌍


At Harry International Malta Limited, we specialize in providing top-notch services for individuals seeking to relocate to Malta through the Global Residence Program.

The Malta Global Residence Programme builds on the success of Malta’s reputation in attracting expatriates seeking an alternative residence base in a warm Mediterranean Island in the European Union. Malta’s membership and full implementation of the Schengen Area Treaty offers further attraction because of the ease of travel within the Schengen Area enjoyed by holders of the Malta Global Residence Programme permit. This programme is designed to attract individuals who are not nationals of the EU, EEA or Switzerland and who are not long-term residents.

Our mission is to make your transition seamless and enjoyable, providing all the help and guidance you would require to embrace the opportunities that Malta has to offer.
