As such, we have great responsibility towards ourselves and our customers. Therefore, at DW&P, a company foundation is preceded by comprehensive founding advice.
Due to (tax) legal aspects or from the company structure, it may be that we advise you against emigration.

Depending on the business model, it may therefore not be advisable to choose Malta as the company’s domicile.

This is what our clients say about us
Using the services of DW&P proved to be very profitable for our company. Before DW&P, we had spent a lot of time and effort in, for example, compiling and filing documents with the relevant authorities, but we can now use this time for other purposes.
I can highly recommend DW&P because of the professionalism of employees hired by DW&P, the right approach towards clients, qualified personnel, in-depth knowledge of a variety of sectors. I especially appreciate the Promptness, accuracy, and reliability of DW&P and I am satisfied with choosing DW&P.
MaltaRent Ltd. was incorporated with the support and service of DW&P in 2015.
Since then we are working together in a very close and friendly business relation. We only can recommend DW&P as a competed, service orientated partner we can rely on. As in every business relationship, it only works if both sides are doing their duties, that’s why it is important to discuss the workflow, to prepare the documents needed and to communicate in a good way to get the result you are looking for.
DW&P is working flexible in finding well-suited solutions for your task. Over the past years we were in contact with many employees of DW&P and each of these individual staff members welcomed us with the sense of 100% service orientated, efficient and pleasant attitude you are looking for to have a trustworthy business partner.
We want to thank our direct contact persons at DW&P for their great job whenever we need assistance.
After living in South America for almost two decades, I wanted to move back to Europe and came across Malta as the ideal new center for my life and business. Reintegration into the EU includes a long list of legal and tax challenges that are better placed in the hands of professionals.
After long research, I found DW&P as the prime address in Malta for my concern. My personal DW&P pluses in brief: The first contact was easy (immediate appointment in the office); the introductory talk with Philipp Sauerborn was top notch (smart and focused person with a large repertoire of solutions); all processes I had to go through were smoothly organized and very well executed; the communication with the entire team is first class (always quick responses, multiligual); The document processing is fully digitalized (state-of-the-art technology, love it); the team members I work with are great (professional and pleasant)…
Bottom Line: I feel in very good hands with DW&P and – just technically speaking – their knowhow saved me already a lot of time and money.
Five stars, all thumbs up!
Dr Werner & Partner is the best that could happen to me and my business. The service and support are extraordinary and a huge help for my company. First of all, DW&P provides big expertise, professional handling and always a swift response. No matter if there are doubts and issues concerning Accounting, Banking or Maltese Law, DW&P would always help. The team is overwhelmingly friendly and almost 24/7 available. I would definitely recommend DW&P.
Before the integration of DW&P into our day-to-day operations, our potential was not optimally exploited. Communication with the authorities had cost us too much time, and the lack of location optimisation was reflected in the balance sheet. Today, it’s not just about economic performance and profit, but also about which methods are used to optimise the value-added process and maximise returns.
I came across DW&P in my search for qualified advice on tax optimisation. DW&P quickly took up our request and gave us excellent advice. The contact was trustworthy right from the start, being solution-oriented and yet very humorous. In less than two months the Maltese company was ready to work and I was 100% informed about the rules and advantages of the new solution. DW&P not only optimizes the construct, DW&P also gives tips for the general improvement of the operational processes. You could probably describe it as an incubator for even stronger companies.
With DW&P, ZUKUNFTSBLICK has achieved a much stronger balance sheet and significantly more net profit (not to be compared with the previous state).
Therefore I can recommend DW&P to any entrepreneur who wants to see a better annual result. Especially for entrepreneurs who are looking for quick, uncomplicated solutions and who do not have time to establish new companies and want to keep up to date with constantly changing legal situations, DW&P is perfectly suited.
DW&P in four words? Fast, transparent, inexpensive and efficient. Very efficient.
Thank you Philipp and thank you Jörg for six years of successful cooperation!
Setting up and running a company in another EU country requires careful consideration and preparation. The risks of putting the cart before the horse are not insignificant, and they can destroy dreams. After the first preliminary research in 2015, we had the good nose and a bit of luck to start in Malta directly with the right partner: Dr. Werner & Partner.
Competence? Expertise? Reliability? — They are given to the highest degree, as we often know it from Germany, Switzerland or Austria, but unfortunately they are not commonplace on the southern flank of the EU …
The efficient organisation of internal processes, a proactive customer information policy, the closely knit team, good networking with Maltese colleagues (lawyers, financial service providers, etc.) and authorities – these were and are decisive plus points to ensure our success.
I particularly appreciate the confidential, almost familylike relationship, in which together we were able to successfully navigate around all the obstacles. This is how sustainability in business relationships is created over the years.
Dr. Werner & Partner – a holistic service approach that fully delivers what it promises!
To move away from Germany was a risky step, which I do not regret 3 years later. Moving to another country with 3, partly small, children is not a step you just take.
I was able to take this risk because DW&P’s advice presented the full risks and opportunities of such a step, without any one-sided glossing over.
DW&P stands out for me mainly because of the uncomplicated communication, transparent and fair price structure paired with high professional competence, which I have never found before in such a combination.
DW&P abstracts the compliance of the international tax system so that I can concentrate on my core business. But this abstraction is not a one-way street – if necessary I can rely on discussing, verifying and controlling even the smallest details.
