Malta address format & examples
How to write a Maltese address
Believe it or not, Malta isn’t the home of the malt milkshake. But it is the home of the oldest free-standing structures in the world, with its Megalithic Temples predating the pyramids of Giza and Stonehenge. Additionally, Malta's capital, Valletta, is an entire city that’s on the UNESCO World Heritage list! It's no wonder you want to know how to address a letter to Malta. We've put together some Maltese address examples for you to look at, and you can try putting in your own addresses to make sure they're formatted correctly.
Smarty's suite of address validation tools for addresses in Malta is second to none. Simply enter a Maltese address, and we'll format, standardize, and validate it in no time at all. Address formatting in Malta can be written out as follows:
- Addressee line - The recipient's full name, using appropriate titles for the region.
- Building number and street - List one after the other without any separating punctuation.
- City and postal code - The postal code is an alphanumeric code that comes after the city.
- Country - This is often shortened to MLT.
