Malta citizenship application has 3 stages:

- The applicant must hold Maltese Residence for 36 months (or 12 months). Throughout the selected period, the investor must spend time in Malta.
- Once the residence card has been issued, the licensed agent will submit an application for citizenship eligibility on behalf of the applicants.
- A letter of approval for eligibility is then issued within 120 to 150 days (provided that all application documentation is in order).
- After either 12 or 36 months of residence in Malta (depending on the applicant’s choice), and once the eligibility assessment has been successful, the citizenship application is submitted.
- Following this, an invitation to take the Oath of Allegiance is issued.
- Once the Oath of Allegiance is taken, a certificate of naturalization is issued.
