Legal & Fiscal Implications Related To Succession
Event Description
Location: Online Live Session | Webinar
Session 01: Thursday, 26 June 2025 | 09:30 - 12:45

Succession planning is a critical legal and financial consideration that affects individuals, families, and businesses alike. Whether through testate or intestate succession, the process of transmitting assets causa mortis carries significant legal and fiscal implications, particularly in relation to estate distribution, inheritance rights, and taxation.

With real-world examples and analysis, the session will provide a comprehensive overview of both the legal and fiscal aspects of succession, offering practical insights to help individuals and professionals navigate these complexities effectively, including reserved portions, forced heirship rules, wills, and cross-border succession under EU Regulation 650/2012. A special focus will be placed on the fiscal aspects of inheritance, particularly the tax implications arising from the transmission of assets causa mortis, including:

  • Succession Duty in Malta – Understanding the 5% tax on immovable property and its calculation based on market value;
  • Exemptions and Reductions – Exploring relief measures, such as exemptions for spouses and direct descendants inheriting residential property;
  • Fiscal Consequences of Delayed Tax Payments – Addressing the impact of late payments, including the application of 8% annual interest on outstanding succession tax.
  • Strategic Planning for Tax Efficiency – Reviewing tools such as donations, usufruct reservations, trusts, and foundations to mitigate tax burdens while ensuring a smooth transmission of wealth.
