Thanks but that seems to be for a SocialSecurityNumber - I have been told I need a 'Tax Number' - its part of what the shipping agent says I need to get my belongings through customs ..

If your belongings are coming from within the EU then all you need to show is a passport or EID.

Why would you need a tax number?

I am a UK national, just arrived in Malta and have been told I need to get a tax number.

As I am on Gozo does anyone know whether I can apply for this at the IRD office on Gozo or do I have to go to Floriana?

I have been told its a '15 min' process???
TIA

You can download the form, which is very simple and either post to the office in Floriana (Probably the best option) or just take it in to the office in Victoria at the following address:-

Inland Revenue Department
Triq Enrico Mizzi
Ir-Rabat, Għawdex

This is just down from St Francis square.

When we first arrived I took the form there and they just sent it in the internal post to Malta, I then waited a year and decided to post another form direct to Malta and got nothing till a Tax Return landed on the doorstep 10 days before it was due to be filed!

When we had personal effects shipped across it was done door to door and there was never any mention of Tax Number, passport or eID, It just turned up at the door one day on the back of a truck!

Same here

Most bodies, i.e MaltaPost, Customs etc accept a passport number in lieu of an ID number until you have one

My belongings are being shipped from outside EU so I need to pay EUR1200 to get it through customs

Anyway went to Floriana yesterday and got it sorted.

They lied about it taking 15mins, it took 5mins

This is interesting....Is it possible that TCN national do the same? I mean to get SSN number and automatically gets tax registration? Or I am just grabbing a straw here

If you need the number urgently I would take the completed form in to the office and they may be able to  give you a number straight away, not sure though.
When I did mine I took it in to the office in Gozo who were supposed to send it on to Malta but it never got there! I went back in a year later and did it again but even then the first I heard was when I received the tax return the following year!
