If you are over 18 you can start with filling form A, all the information and details on the form should be written correctly. Then you can go to the Passport office to hand your application with your ID card and biometric passport photos that fit to Malta passport photo size. In case you apply for Maltese passport for the first time, the recommender’s endorsement (a recommender is usually a professional person) is also required.

If you are under 18 you need to fill form A as well as ask your parents to give their consent by signing in representative of the recommender. Next you can submit the form at the Passport office together with a copy of your parents’ ID cards and don't forget to bring two identical Malta passport size photographs with you!

Your passport should be ready after 4 working days.
