Malta has published the current travel requirements, stating that a travel ban to and from all red zone countries still applies.
Maltese citizens or registered residents currently in these countries and persons who have been granted exceptional approval to travel to or from a red zone by the Superintendent of Public Health, will be given the opportunity to return to Malta, subject to presenting a negative PCR test result for COVID-19, which test is to be taken no longer than 72 hours prior to arrival in Malta; testing on arrival; in addition, 14 days of mandatory quarantine is required and a repeat PCR test must be taken on day 11-12 of quarantine.
Current travel requirements applicable to all passengers (aged 5 and over)
Any person who travels to Malta, whether by air or by sea, shall prior to boarding and upon arrival provide a completed Passenger Locator Form(PLF) together with a negative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) Covid-19 test taken not earlier than 72 hours before arrival in Malta.
As from June 1, 2021, a valid Maltese vaccination certificate with clearly visible QR codes can be presented instead of a negative PCR result. Failure to present either, together with a PLF, will result in denied boarding.
If upon arrival, any passenger (aged 5 and above) is not in possession of any of the above, the passenger will be subject to a Mandatory PCR test and/or Mandatory quarantine against a fee as per legal notice LN229 of 2021.
