Global Residence Programme (GRP)
The Global Residence Programme (GRP) is a residency scheme offered by the government of Malta, designed to attract non-EU/EEA/Swiss nationals who meet certain financial requirements and wish to reside in Malta. This programme is particularly appealing to individuals seeking a better standard of living, and access to the European Union. Applicants must meet specific financial criteria, including having a stable and regular income sufficient to support themselves and any dependents and must also commit to purchasing or renting property in Malta. Applicants must also provide evidence of valid health insurance coverage for themselves and their dependents.

The Malta Permanent Residency Programme stands out as one of the highly coveted residency programmes in Europe, offering residency through property rental, investment, and government contribution.
