Understanding the Office Rent Costs
The office rent costs in Malta varies depending on the location, size, and amenities.
Usually, commercial real estate agencies display prices per month, which do not include VAT. To be able to compare the prices of different offices, we recommend calculating the price per square meter ( (office price/month x 12) / total sq m.). This will give you a more accurate comparison of the cost of each office space you consider. The square footage that you need mainly depends on the number of employees you have. We created an Office Size Calculator to identify the approximate size in square meters of office space required.
Additionally, it’s important to know all additional fees or charges (if any) that may be associated with the office, such as maintenance or parking fees, a required deposit, and so on.
