What they asked for

  1. Who can use it?

    Wants changes
    Call for evidence (2025) · 23 Sep 2025

    Design the 28th Regime as an optional framework that complements but does not replace national company law, preserving Malta's legal strengths and flexibility.

    “The MBB supports the creation of the 28th Regime as an optional, business-friendly legal framework that complements, rather than replaces, national company law.”

  2. How fast can you set one up?

    Wants changes
    Call for evidence (2025) · 23 Sep 2025

    Ensure the regime is fully digital in practice, allowing all steps including incorporation and shareholder changes to be completed online in widely used EU languages, especially English, and eliminate or harmonise notarisation and capital-deposit requirements that require physical presence.

    “The regime must be digital-first in practice, not just in principle. This means allowing every step, from incorporation to shareholder changes to be completed online in widely used EU languages, particularly English. Notarisation and capital-deposit requirements that necessitate physical presence should be eliminated or harmonised.”

  3. What about tax?

    Backs it
    Call for evidence (2025) · 23 Sep 2025

    Keep taxation fully within Member State competence and ensure any voluntary tax incentives linked to the regime do not become indirect obligations.

    “The MBB welcomes the Commissions indication that tax and labour law will remain national competencies. This separation is essential to avoid protracted legislative negotiations and to protect Maltas fiscal autonomy. Any voluntary tax incentives linked to the regime must not evolve into indirect obligations.”
