Entry requirements for Malta
| Rule | Detail | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Passport validity | 3 months months beyond departure — Schengen rules: non-EU passports must be valid at least 3 months after the date of departure from Malta/the Schengen area and issued within the previous 10 years; the 3-month rule does not apply to holders of a Schengen-issued residence permit or long-stay visa. | Malta International Airport - Passport Control (Schengen entry conditions); EU Your Europe - Travel documents for non-EU nationals · retrieved 2026-08-07 |
| Onward ticket | Often checked — Schengen entry conditions: border officials may require documents substantiating the purpose and conditions of stay and sufficient means for the visit and for return/onward travel; a return or round-trip ticket may be requested. | EU Your Europe - Travel documents for non-EU nationals · retrieved 2026-08-07 |
| Yellow fever | Certificate required only when arriving from risk countries — >12h airport transit in a risk country also triggers the requirement (per WHO Annex 1 footnote 5; the earlier WHO ITH country list instead stated transit passengers were exempt and that unvaccinated infants under 9 months from risk areas may be subject to isolation or surveillance). | WHO International Travel and Health · retrieved 2026-08-07 |
