Hello everybody,

No two people experience expatriation in Malta in the same way, depending on their age and personal situation. We would like to know more about you and ask you to share with us when you decided to move to Malta.

How old were you when you moved to Malta? Did you go alone or with your family?

In your opinion, was it the right time to move there?

Do you find this country welcoming for your age group or for certain categories in particular? Why or why not?

Are there any incentives (financial aid, lower taxes, etc.) and for which category of expats?

In your opinion, is there an ideal age to move to Malta?

Thank you for your contribution!

Cheryl,

In my opinion the best time to relocate here is when you retire whatever age that maybe, just for the slower life style and the better weather.

I came here for retirement in order to support this little country which has a much lower crime rate than countries of Africa or the Caribbean.

As a matter of fact, also a lot of British people say the same.
Malta is a safe country.
The homicide rate of Malta is 1 per 100 000 inhabitants
whilst Mauritius                     is 3
Seychelles                               is 10
Grenada                                  is 15
Statistics help people to make decisions
