Corporate Tax Advisory and Compliance
Corporate tax advisory and compliance form a core component of professional accounting services in Malta. All Maltese-registered companies are required to prepare and submit annual income tax returns, maintain accurate tax computations, and settle any tax liabilities within the statutory deadlines established by the Commissioner for Revenue. Proper compliance is essential not only to meet legal obligations but also to safeguard directors and shareholders from exposure to penalties, interest, or reputational risk.
At Equitas Advisory, we prepare detailed corporate tax computations supported by fully reconciled accounting records. Our work ensures that each submission is technically sound, aligned with current Maltese tax legislation, and consistent with the company’s financial statements. We review allowable deductions, capital allowances, carried-forward losses, group relief considerations, and other relevant adjustments to ensure that the company’s tax position is accurately determined and efficiently structured.
Beyond annual compliance, our tax advisory and compliance services include structured guidance on corporate tax planning within the framework of Maltese law. We assist companies in evaluating operational structures, dividend distribution strategies, cross-border considerations, and other tax-sensitive matters. Our objective is to ensure that companies remain fully compliant while operating in a tax-efficient and commercially sound manner.

Individual Tax Advisory and Compliance
Tax advisory and compliance obligations also apply to individuals earning income in or from Malta. This includes employees with additional income streams, self-employed professionals, company directors, partners in partnerships, and individuals receiving rental, investment, or foreign income. Annual income tax returns must be prepared accurately and submitted within prescribed deadlines in accordance with Maltese income tax legislation.
Equitas Advisory assists individuals with the preparation and submission of personal income tax returns, ensuring that all sources of income are correctly declared and assessed. We identify applicable deductions, tax credits, and reliefs, and ensure that provisional tax payments and social security contributions are calculated correctly where applicable. Our structured approach ensures clarity, confidentiality, and accuracy throughout the process.
In addition to compliance, we provide measured personal tax advisory services, assisting individuals in understanding the tax implications of business activities, property transactions, cross-border income, and investment structures. Our role is to provide clear guidance while ensuring full adherence to Maltese tax regulations.
