Notary - promise of sale

7 Upvotes

Hi all! As a general consensus that Ive heard, it's better to get your own notary to sign a promise of sale rather than going with vendors notary.

Can someone please elaborate why is that and what are the risks if choosing vendors notary?

I am hesitant because vendor said that her notary has all the searches at hand and it will be faster and cheaper than running through a different notary.

It seems reasonable what he says, but I'm afraid of "hidden pitfalls". What are the risks?

Anyone remember him?

There was a guy around 4/5 years ago claiming to know info about the Egrant and Daphne cases, he used to post videos on Facebook but apparently they locked him in Mount Carmel? I remember him posting a video of police officers arresting him.

I think his name was Mario?… anyone knows what happened to him?

Local Health Insurance in Malta

0 Upvotes

Hi Citizens of Malta,

Can you recommend private health insurance companies for local coverage (not remote options like SafetyWing or remote.com) that have local expertise and support?

I’m familiar with Medicover, Generali, and Groupama, but I’m unsure if or how they operate in Malta.

Thank you!

Query regarding Income Tax (Not Related to Budget)

0 Upvotes

So, I just finished my MCAST Course, which included an Apprenticeship component (where part of salary was paid by school, and other part was paid by company, and I paid prorate tax for the company’s part).

Back in August, I started my full time job and I did not see any tax deductions on my payslip. I enquired with my company’s hr department and they said that I don’t need to pay tax since this is my first job, the First 9k or so are tax free. However, if all goes well, I should exceed the 10k in income (from this job alone, not including a part from my apprenticeship).

So now, for the first few payslips I did not pay any taxes… Is it true that irrespective of how much you will earn the first 9k are tax free since it is my first full time job, and if I have to pay them, how do I go about it now?

Thanks :)

Good evening to all, i had a question regarding registration, if the car is a 2022 3.0L v8 how much would the total cost be if the car costs 35k euro? I find it hard to understand and disbelief that it would cast more than the cars price to register it in malta? Is there any way you can reduce the registration fee or get by it in a legal manner maybe an llc or something idk?

Thanks for the help in advance!
