Hello folks,
I would be very grateful if you could share your experience on applying for Maltese citizenship through naturalisation.
I am an E.U. citizen living in Malta. I am planning to apply for naturalisation to become a Maltese citizen. From the identity Malta website, as far as I can understand if I am not wrong, the applicant needs to be legally resident in Malta for 5 years. But does it depend on the discretion of the Maltese Government whether to approve it or not? Does it takes many years to get the application processed?
I know there are many other schemes that involve investing a lot of money. But I am specifically asking about the naturalisation process for E.U. citizens who are exercising treaty rights in Malta.
Many thanks.
