I've done a lot of googling but still not clear to me how to complete my first tax return.

Maybe someone can advise who has been through the same process?. Here the issues:

-I am an EU non Maltese citizen

-I became tax resident during 2023 year under the EU self sufficient residency option

-I do not work or earn income in Malta.

-I am required to complete my first tax return by End of JUN

-I presume I am non tax domiciled and therefore subject to tax only on monies remitted to Malta and taxed a fixed tax of EUR5000, on my global earnings as they are are above EUR35,000.

Qustions:

-Is non-dom status automatic or does it need to be separately applied for?

-For monies remitted to Malta do the local tax rates apply or is special 15% rate available as under some residence schemes.

-I see nowhere to enter remitted income on the tax return as it seems to be more interested in local employment income. Where on the tax return do I declare remitted income?

-Where on the tax return is the EUR5000 for global earnings accounted for, I find no entry for this?

All very confusing. Very grateful is anyone can advise who has come up with the same issues.
