International  |   |  2 min read

Addresses in Malta follow their own order and postcode rules. This guide shows how to write one correctly, with real postcode examples and the most common mistakes, whether you are sending mail, building a checkout form or preparing test data.

Address format

House number or name and street (Triq), then locality and postcode.

Mia Micallef 22, Triq tal-Ħamrija Sliema SLM 5433

Malta postcode format

Format: AAA 9999

Maltese postcodes have three letters for the locality and four digits, for example VLT 1117 for Valletta.

More examples

Emma Vella 69, Triq il-Kbira ta' San Ġużepp Valletta VLT 8902
Nathan Azzopardi 24, Triq il-Merkanti Saint Paul's Bay SPB 2842

Sending to Malta from abroad

Write the address exactly as it is used locally, then add the country name in capital English letters on the last line.

Luke Azzopardi 60, Triq tal-Ġnien Mosta MST 2793 MALTA

Tips and common mistakes

  • Triq means street.
  • Many homes use a house name instead of a number.
  • The postcode follows the locality name.
  • Letters in the postcode abbreviate the locality.

Test data for Malta

There is no widely reserved fictional phone range here, so the generator leaves phone numbers out. Generated addresses use real towns and postcode areas with invented streets and names, so they are safe for form testing, mockups and documentation.

Generate realistic Malta addresses in the local format, then copy them or download CSV and JSON.
