About the register

Malta Business Registry

The Malta Business Registry (MBR) is the central authority for commercial entities in Malta, established as an agency under Subsidiary Legislation 595.27 and headed by the Registrar of Companies. It registers companies and other commercial partnerships, collects statutory filings and fees, houses the Insolvency and Receivership Service and has acted as a supervisory authority under the Prevention of Money Laundering regulations since 2021. Filing and searching run through BAROS, the Business Automation Registry Online System at register.mbr.mt, which is available around the clock.

Every company files an annual return on each anniversary of its registration, submitted to the Registrar within 42 days of the anniversary date and signed by at least one director or the company secretary. The registry makes company information publicly available, including a list of shareholders, directors, company secretaries and other persons vested with administration, with details such as name, residential address, nationality and business occupation.

The MBR also maintains Malta's central register of beneficial owners and verifies the information filed there. That register is not on general public view: since 10 July 2025 access requires a written application demonstrating a legitimate interest. Company Records resolves beneficial ownership by following the registered shareholders up the ownership chain, entity by entity, from official registry filings such as the annual return, which works even where the beneficial ownership register is restricted. The Company Records report for Malta includes the registration certificate, the annual return and the memorandum and articles of association.

Good to know

Questions about Malta company records

General questions are answered in the FAQ.

Are shareholders and beneficial owners included for Malta?
Yes. The official register, Malta Business Registry, publishes shareholder and beneficial-owner data, and the record includes it. The resolved ownership chain is our own work, computed from those filings.
Which filings are included for Malta?
Registration Certificate, Annual Return, Memorandum and Articles of Association. The register holds 14 further filing types, listed above under "Available separately". They are not part of the purchase; ask us and we will retrieve them.
How long does delivery take for Malta?
Usually within minutes, by email and in your account: retrieval for Malta is automated.
What does a company record for Malta cost?
US$49.00 per record for Malta, in one payment by card.
What is a Maltese annual return?
Every company registered in Malta must submit an annual return to the Registrar upon each anniversary of its registration, accompanied by the registration fee, by not later than 42 days from the anniversary date. It must be signed by at least one director or by the company secretary. The Company Records report for Malta includes the annual return alongside the registration certificate and the memorandum and articles of association.
Does the Malta Business Registry show shareholders?
Yes. The MBR states that the data it makes publicly available for registered companies and commercial partnerships includes a list of shareholders, directors, company secretaries and other persons vested with administration, with details such as name, residential address, nationality and business occupation. Shareholder information in the Company Records report therefore comes from the registry's own records.
Is beneficial ownership information public in Malta?
No, the register of beneficial owners kept by the MBR is not freely available to the public. Since 10 July 2025, under amendments implementing the first phase of the EU's sixth anti-money-laundering directive, a person able to demonstrate a legitimate interest in the prevention and combating of money laundering or terrorist financing may request access by written application to the MBR, and the Registrar may refuse a request in writing with a right of appeal within 20 days. Company Records resolves UBOs by tracing registered shareholders up the ownership chain, entity by entity, from MBR filings.
What is BAROS?
BAROS is the Business Automation Registry Online System, the MBR's online platform at register.mbr.mt. It provides access for the filing and registration of company documentation at any hour, and it is the channel through which name reservation, incorporation and statutory filings are handled.
