Malta Company & Beneficial Ownership Directory
Malta company register data is held by the Malta Business Registry (MBR) under the Companies Act, Cap. 386, with financial statements and most shareholder detail largely accessible through the MBR directly. Beneficial ownership sits on the Register of Beneficial Owners of Companies, governed by Beneficial Ownership Regulations amended in July 2026 into a three-tier access model, at a threshold of 25% plus one share — or, where no individual reaches that level, the senior managing official is registered instead. Not freely: following the EU's November 2022 Court of Justice ruling, access is restricted to parties who can show a legitimate interest.
