Services for Maltese Citizens and Their Families

Help for Maltese families, wherever they live

Around one million people around the world are Maltese or of Maltese descent, with large communities in Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada and the United States. For them, the most important dealings with the Maltese state are practical: renewing a passport, registering a child, and helping a husband or wife become Maltese. Each is handled by a different authority with its own forms, and almost all of them require a personal appearance, either in Malta or at a Maltese embassy, high commission or consulate.

Mirabello Consultancy is a Swiss advisory firm with offices in Zurich, Dubai and Hong Kong SAR. We support Maltese citizens and their families remotely, in 11 languages, preparing and checking every file before it reaches the authorities, booking the right appointments and following each application through to the result. You can file any of these applications yourself; our role is to save you the time, the repeat visits and the uncertainty.

What only the authorities can do

Every decision on a Maltese passport, a birth registration or a citizenship application is made by Identità or by Aġenzija Komunità Malta, and no third party can speed one up or influence it. The only official fast track in these services is the Passport Office's urgent service, which issues a passport in 4 working hours for applications made in Malta. Citizenship applications have no paid or official fast track. What determines how quickly most families get a result is whether the file is complete and consistent the first time.

How we work

• Eligibility first. We confirm what applies to you, whether a child is already Maltese, whether a spouse meets the five-year rule, and whether a passport can be renewed abroad.
• Documents once, used everywhere. Certificates from the Malta Public Registry and parish records, apostilles and certified translations are obtained once and reused across a family's applications.
• Forms prepared and checked. Form A for passports, foreign birth and marriage registrations, and Form B for spouses, with consent signatures and recommender requirements handled before the appointment.
• Appointments and follow-up. We book the appointment at the Passport Office, the Public Registry, the Agency or the right mission, and follow each application until the document is issued.

Government fees are always paid at cost and shown separately from our service fee, which we confirm per case after a free, no-obligation consultation. Matters that need a legal opinion are referred to a warranted Maltese advocate.

Not investment citizenship

These are ordinary services for Maltese citizens and their families. They are open to those who already hold, or are entitled to, Maltese citizenship through birth, descent or marriage, and they are decided on eligibility, never on payment. Malta's former citizenship by investment programme closed in 2025. Investors looking for residence in Malta can explore the Malta Permanent Residence Programme and the Global Residence Programme, which are entirely separate from the services on this page.
