SMM Group

About SMM Group

SMM Group is made up of SMM Advocates, a law practice, and SMM Consultancy Services Ltd, its corporate services arm, both operating from Valletta. The group works for private individuals, local businesses and international clients who want to establish or relocate activity in Malta, from first-stage set-up through ongoing administration. Corporate work is backed by authorisations from the MFSA as a company service provider, from the national agency for residence programmes as an accredited agent, and as a registered mandatary with the tax authority. Beyond companies, the team handles residence and citizenship applications, visas and work permits, and registration of yachts and aircraft under the Maltese flag. A tax department works with accountants and outside audit firms on personal and corporate matters. The firm says its staff speak English, Italian, French, Arabic and Russian, among other languages, which suits foreign owners and migrant employers.
