Grand Harbour - Clearance

Mar 06, 2013

For full details on clearing into and out for Malta see the noonsite Malta Formalities page.

All arriving yachts should call Malta Port Authority before entering the harbor. This is a formality and a safety issue as there is a lot of traffic going in and out of the harbours.

On arrival, all yachts arriving from non-EU waters have to report to Customs. During office hours, visitors are normally directed to the marina receiving dock. Outside office hours clearance is done in the commercial port, Grand Harbour (which is much more complicated to get to).

Go to visit them with passports and boat papers after you have berthed or anchored. Everyone is supposed to visit them, but if you are from outside the EU it is more important.
