- Malta plans to accelerate the introduction of mandatory e-invoicing and real-time VAT reporting.
- The reform aligns with international standards, including the OECD’s 15% Global Minimum Tax and the EU’s ViDA initiative.
- Key goals include modernizing VAT administration, combating fraud, expanding OSS for cross-border compliance, and imposing new VAT obligations on digital platforms.
- No official implementation dates are set, but a phased rollout is expected to align with EU 2030 requirements.
- Malta’s high VAT gap (24.2% in 2023) is driving urgency for these reforms, with an announcement on the timeline expected soon.
