What is a Malta Visit Visa?

The Malta Visit Visa, also known as a Short-Stay Schengen Visa (Type C), allows non-EU nationals to travel to Malta and other Schengen countries for up to 90 days within a 180-day period. This visa is issued for purposes such as:

• Tourism and sightseeing

• Visiting friends or family

• Attending business meetings or conferences

• Medical consultations or treatment

• Cultural or sports events

Once granted, this visa gives access to all 27 Schengen countries, making Malta a gateway to explore Europe.

Citizens of countries outside the EU/EEA/Schengen Area generally require a visa to enter Malta. This includes applicants from Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Nigeria, UAE, Philippines, and more.
