EOR SERVICES IN MALTA

Using our EOR services in Malta allows you to access the opportunities of the Maltese market within days while we take care of the paperwork for hiring your workforce compliantly.  Malta is renowned for its international environment, multilingual workforce, and prosperous business opportunities. As a member of the EU, the microstate of Malta has a strong focus on foreign trade. Right in front of the coast of Italy with extensive connections to Europe, Africa, and the Middle East Malta offers tons of possibilities. 

The great geographic location, combined with the advanced financial sector and blooming tourist, electronics, and construction industries, has turned Malta’s economy into a reliable free-market economy with plenty of fruitful opportunities. But each new market brings new challenges. These can be worked through efficiently and cost-effectively with the support of an international Professional Employer Organisation (PEO) such as Bradford Jacobs, primarily through our Employer of Record (EOR) framework. This can be best utilised when businesses are just beginning their expansion process and require more information before incorporating an entity and fully establishing themselves in the Maltese market.

Why choose an EOR when expanding into Malta?

Our EOR services in Malta offer our global entity network to companies considering expansion. We become your international employees’ Employer of Record, meaning that we take full responsibility for your employees’:

  • Labour contracts
  • Compliance with Maltese laws
  • Tax contributions
  • Payroll

As an Employer Of Record, we conclude an agreement with you and the employee who will be working for your company. We become the legal employer of your new workforce while your company remains in control of your employees’ working relationships, work ethics, tasks, and daily responsibilities.

How does an Employer of Record work in Malta?

Our agency in Malta will legally hire your selected employees while you are responsible for their day-to-day activities. We currently operate in over a hundred countries where we use local networks of experts, which allows us to gain expert knowledge of local laws and regulations and recruitment customs and trends. By partnering with us as an EOR, your company will also have access to this specialist knowledge.

Our contract with your employee is 100% compliant with Maltese labour laws and includes benefits such as insurance and pensions. We can hire, onboard, and manage your new employees in Malta within days. Here is what we can do for you:

  • We hire your new talent compliant with Maltese laws and regulations
  • We are responsible for the employment contract, HR (Human Resources), taxes, and payroll
  • We provide and arrange the required visa or work permits for Malta
  • Our team keeps your employee in the loop on holiday arrangements, benefits, or changes in labour laws
  • We keep you posted on Maltese law changes and adapt to these changes compliantly
  • Your employees’ declarations are sent to us monthly. We will invoice you in time, and once the payment is completed, we will deduct taxes and other contributions and guarantee your employees receive their salary on time.
  • You remain in control of the daily activities and responsibilities of your employee.

What are the benefits of using EOR services in Malta?

The most significant benefit of using our EOR services in Malta is probably that there is then no necessity for you to set up an entity there. This process can take months, and during this period, it is unlikely that you will have legal resources to pay your employees in Malta, resulting in a considerable delay in your Global Expansion plans.

Global expansion is an exciting step that often leads to a growing and successful business, but the red tape in a new country can be demotivating and frustrating. Imagine a way to expand your business without red tape globally and at low costs: that is what working with an EOR can do for you. By letting us take care of the hard part, you can focus on the significant part: expanding your business into Malta.

These are the aspects we can take away from you:

  • Registering with the tax and social security office.
  • Immerse yourself in Maltese laws, customs, and regulations.
  • Get familiar with Maltese labour benefits and other contract-related customs.
  • Approach potential employees and make them an offer.
  • Setting up the Payroll system compliantly.
  • Submitting wage tax returns and national insurance forms.
  • Staying up-to-date and compliant with changes in Malta regulations.

Benefits for Employers when using EOR services in Malta

As an employer, you are usually responsible for all legal aspects regarding your employees’ employment. In a new country, this process will probably take some more effort, but it does not have to.
