Maltaの税務居住ルール:183日テスト
183日のしきい値
Maltaにおける183日ルールの仕組み
Malta applies a 183 day calendar year test.
暦年(1月〜12月). これは、日数カウントが毎年1月1日にリセットされることを意味します。前年の日数は繰り越されません。
183日を超えると、Maltaは税務居住者としてあなたの全世界所得に課税する可能性があります。具体的な影響は、個人の状況、適用される租税条約、所得の種類によって異なります。
日数のカウント方法
Malta treats you as a tax resident if you are ordinarily resident or domiciled in Malta. Sitting alongside that is the 183 day "temporary resident" rule, which says that spending more than 183 days in Malta in a calendar year (aggregate, not continuous) makes you Maltese tax resident for that year. Ordinary residence runs deeper than the day count and is built on long term presence plus intent to stay.
1日とみなされる条件
Both arrival and departure days count, and the 183 day test totals all days of presence rather than requiring them to be continuous.
日数以外の判定基準
Domicile is a separate, common law concept that Malta inherits from English law. Most of the time it follows your father's domicile or, later, the place you choose as your permanent home. Maltese residents who are not domiciled in Malta are taxed on the remittance basis for their foreign income, which is the lever a lot of newcomers actually care about.
特別税制
Two named schemes are the headline. The Global Residence Programme (for non EU/EEA/Swiss nationals) and the Residence Programme (for EU/EEA/Swiss nationals) both offer a 15% flat tax on foreign income remitted to Malta, subject to a minimum tax floor and property requirements. For inbound employees in skilled roles, the Highly Qualified Persons rules can also drop tax on Maltese employment income above a threshold to a flat 15%.
租税条約
Malta has more than 70 tax treaties, almost all built on the OECD model. They allocate taxing rights and provide tiebreakers in dual residence cases.
よくある質問
How does Maltese non dom taxation work?
Maltese residents who are not domiciled in Malta pay Maltese tax on Maltese source income and on foreign income only when it is remitted to Malta. Foreign capital gains stay outside the Maltese tax net even on remittance.
What is the Global Residence Programme?
A scheme for non EU/EEA/Swiss nationals to establish Maltese tax residency with a 15% flat rate on foreign income remitted to Malta. Property requirements and a minimum tax floor apply, and you need to keep the qualifying property arrangement in place each year.
Does the 183 day rule apply to EU citizens in Malta?
Yes. EU citizenship does not change the residency tests under Maltese tax law. EU citizens enjoy free movement, but tax residency is judged on the same domestic rules as everyone else.
