The Affidavit Letter of Support is a crucial document in Malta's legal framework, particularly utilized in situations where formal declarations of support are required. It serves as a legally binding commitment where the affiant pledges to provide specific types of support to a beneficiary. This document type is governed by Maltese law and must be executed in accordance with the Code of Organization and Civil Procedure. Common uses include immigration applications, student visa processes, family reunification cases, and situations requiring formal financial guarantees. The affidavit must contain detailed information about both parties, the nature and extent of support being offered, and the affiant's capability to provide such support. It requires verification by a Commissioner for Oaths and may need to be submitted to various authorities depending on its intended use.
