Apostille for Malta
Moving to Malta for a nursing, hospitality, iGaming or IT job, enrolling in a Maltese college, or joining family there? Malta has applied the Hague Apostille Convention since 3 March 1968, so Indian public documents need the MEA apostille – not legalisation by the Maltese High Commission. INFINITYGRO completes the apostille for Malta in Delhi, and with English an official language of Malta, translation is almost never needed.

apostille
The apostille for Malta is the last step on an Indian document: a Passport Seva PCC goes straight to the MEA, while degrees and nursing diplomas are first verified by the state education department, university or council, and civil certificates by the home department or SDM. Maltese employers and authorities accept the result in English, with no translation and no High Commission stamp.
Malta embassy attestation is not needed – the apostille for Malta is
India and Malta are both members of the Apostille Convention, so the High Commission of Malta does not legalise Indian public documents. Maltese offices accept the MEA apostille and its QR code.
Because English is an official language in Malta, Indian documents issued in English go straight into the file with no translation step – a real time saver compared with most of Europe. The typical single-permit file needs the police clearance and qualification documents with the apostille for Malta.
