Jordan & Malta Double Tax Treaty
The Double Taxation Relief Treaty between Malta and Jordan was signed in Amman on 16 April 2009 and is currently in force since 13 October 2010.

Jordanian Withholding Taxes
The main features of the Malta-Jordan tax treaty are as follows:
Dividend Income
The Double Tax Treaty Malta Jordan states that the maximum Jordanian withholding tax on dividends distributed by a Jordanian resident company to a Maltese resident beneficial owner of the dividend income is 10%.
Interest Income
The Double Tax Treaty Malta Jordan states that the maximum Jordanian withholding tax on interest paid by a Jordanian resident to a Maltese resident beneficial owner of the interest income is 10%.
Royalty Income
The Double Tax Treaty Malta Jordan states that the maximum Jordanian withholding tax on royalties paid by a Jordanian resident to a Maltese resident beneficial owner of the royalty income is 10%.
Other Income
The Double Tax Treaty Malta Jordan states that pensions and other similar remuneration from Jordanian sources to a Maltese resident individual may only be taxed in Malta.
However, this does not apply for pensions paid under the social security legislation of Jordan, which are taxable in Jordan only.
When navigating tax matters from Malta to Jordan and from Jordan to Malta, it’s essential to understand how the Double Tax Treaty between the two countries impacts taxation on income, capital gains, and other financial obligations. This treaty ensures that individuals and businesses benefit from reduced tax liabilities and avoid the risk of double taxation. By leveraging this agreement, both residents and companies can optimise their tax position when operating or investing across Malta to Jordan or Jordan to Malta.
