Hi,
Can someone highlight if there's an advantage or disadvantage for registering for residency based on self-sufficiency vs. self-employment vs employment? Does self-employment mean the money has to come from some sort of self-employment in Malta itself? I have the money to qualify for self-sufficiency. I also have web-based business that to me seems like self-employment. Yet, if I found options for working in Malta, I'd consider them. So I still don't understand which of the 3 is the best to register under initially.
Also, if self-employed/self-sufficient, is there any advantage to paying into the social security scheme? Is that optional? Someone has posted on a previous thread that self-employed ppl pay 28 euro a week (is that right?), but for more than 100 euro a month, I could just as well get private medical insurance.
Tks!
