A quarter that closes before the books do
The return is due on a fixed date, so bookkeeping running a month behind turns every quarter into a scramble.

Why VAT & duty services matters
VAT registration, returns and compliance support for businesses trading in and from Malta.
Treatment applied by habit
A business selling more than one kind of thing tends to settle into one treatment and carry it across lines that do not attract it.
Cross-border sales treated as local ones
Selling to customers outside Malta changes how a sale is reported, and the change is easy to miss until a return has to be corrected.
VAT & Duty Services tailored to your business
Registration through the MTCA portal, then quarterly returns filed by the 15th of the second month after each quarter ends.
What’s included.Everything we take care of, in one place.
VAT registration completed through the MTCA portal
Quarterly VAT returns prepared and filed by the statutory date
Periodic declarations and recap statements where they apply to you
Sales and purchase records reviewed for the treatment actually applied, not the one assumed
MTCA queries and correspondence handled on your behalf
A standing note of what falls due next, and what we need in order to prepare it
Here's the VAT & duty services breakdown.
Returns filed from finished records
Each quarter prepared from books that were already up to date, rather than assembled against the deadline.
Treatment checked, not assumed
What was applied to each line reviewed as part of the return, so an error is caught before filing rather than after.
The date handled for you
Every quarterly deadline tracked from the start of the year, so it never arrives as news.
VAT & Duty Services you can rely on.
VAT is where the calendar is least forgiving. A quarterly return falls due on the 15th of the second month after the quarter ends, and it falls due whether or not that quarter’s bookkeeping has been finished. We handle registration through the MTCA portal, then keep the records far enough ahead that each return is prepared from work already done.

Our VAT & duty services FAQs
Can you register me for VAT?
Yes. Registration is completed through the MTCA portal, and the article you register under is settled with you first rather than assumed.
What do you need to prepare a return?
Your sales and purchase records for the quarter, kept far enough ahead that the return is prepared from work already done. If we keep your books, we already have them.
What if MTCA asks a question about a return?
Queries and correspondence with MTCA are handled on your behalf, with the records needed to answer them already filed against each entry.
Do you check the VAT treatment, or just add up the figures?
Both. Sales and purchase records are reviewed for the treatment actually applied, not the one assumed, before the return is prepared.
