The Advocate General has just delivered his opinion on the European Commission’s case against Malta’s Citizenship by Investment (CBI) Programme, stating that the case should be dismissed.
“I propose that the Court dismiss the Commission’s action, order the Commission to pay its costs on those of the Republic of Malta.” – The Advovate General.
While non-binding, this opinion will follow the June 17 hearings and shed light on the programme’s next steps. However, a final ruling on the legality of Malta’s CBI programme is anticipated by the end of 2024 or early 2025.
