What is the Malta Travel Declaration Form?

The Malta Travel Declaration, also known as the Digital Passenger Locator Form, was created by the Malta Public Health department to allow passengers traveling to Malta to enter without any problems.

On the form, you must truthfully state whether you have had symptoms related to the Coronavirus prior to your travel and have not tested positive for COVID-19.

Please note that this document is required for all local citizens or foreign travelers. However, local citizens are only required to present it if they have traveled abroad for several months.

Once you arrive at the airport, immigration officials will ask for Malta travel declaration forms to allow you to enter Malta. Remember that this document is mandatory for both citizens and foreign travelers.

How long is the Malta Travel Declaration Form valid for?

This document is valid for a total of 14 days after arrival or until passport expires and can be used for a Single Entry. This means that every time you want to travel to Malta, you will have to apply for a new document.

COVID-19 requirements or restrictions

Do I need to take a COVID-19 test before traveling to Malta?

If you are an unvaccinated traveler, you must submit a negative COVID-19 PCR test within 72 hours or an antigen test within 24 hours. Antigen tests are only accepted in the EU COVID-19 digital certificate format.

Some exemptions from COVID-19 are children under 12 years of age and fully vaccinated travelers.

Do I need a COVID-19 vaccine or vaccination certificate to enter Malta?

No! Nowadays, it is not necessary to present a vaccination certificate to enter Malta. However, if you are fully vaccinated, you will not need to present a negative PCR test.

The vaccines approved in the country are from Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Janssen, and Nuvaxovid. In addition, WHO-approved vaccines are also recognized, provided a booster dose has been administered, or travelers have a negative PCR taken within 72 hours prior to arrival in Malta.

Remember that this information can change rapidly and is highly dependent on the overall pandemic situation, so we recommend that you keep up to date.

Do I need to quarantine when I get to Malta?

At the moment, according to the public health authorities, there are no quarantine restrictions on entering Malta.

What else should I keep in mind before traveling to Malta?

Malta has two official languages, Maltese and English. In high season it is also very common to find Spaniards working in the service sector since they take advantage of going to Malta to learn English.

On the other hand, the official currency is the Euro, as in many European countries. However, traveling to a non-EU country can change the currency in local banks and ATMs. Credit cards such as VISA, MasterCard, and American Express are widely accepted.

Important to know about the climate. Although the weather in Malta is generally sunny and dry, it can rain a lot, especially between September and November. The best time to travel to Malta is during spring or autumn. Easter and Christmas are also good times to visit.

The months with more tourists in the beach area are July and August. On the other hand, it is essential to take precautions, for example, go where the Maltese do and never swim too far from the coast. The currents in Malta can be treacherous, especially in the Maltese Islands.
