Only fully vaccinated persons can travel to Malta from the UK as from the 30th of June. Currently only the Maltese vaccination certificate is a valid certificate accepted by the Maltese Authorities.
However, the Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Directorate clarified on Saturday, that as from the 1st of July, the UK (2 dose certificate) and the EU digital Covid certificate will be accepted as well.
In as social media post, the Directorate also explained that children aged 5-12 can travel if they accompany their vaccinated parents/ legal guardian provided they provide a negative nasopharyngeal PCR test carried out within 72 hours from arrival in Malta. Children under 5 do not need a test.
It also said that a Maltese resident or citizen not in possession of an accepted vaccine certificate can proceed to Malta only after seeking pre-authorisation from covid19.vetting@gov.mt , who would request a pre-departure PCR, 14 days quarantine and PCRs during the period of quarantine.



























Where on Gozo can I obtain my EU vaccination certificate?
Upstairs at the Duke shopping centre.
Unfortunately, yet again an official website that does not work properly.
Mine was downloaded with no problem but my wife’s would not, so as instructed we sent all the details required to the email address given. Reply back requested a copy of the vaccination card which was duly sent. Still no certificate received!
Tried online again and this time it said already generated please re print, great, but it still would not accept correct details. So along with thousands of others for whom the system will not work we have to visit the office and take up officials time!
