Addressing tips for Malta
- A Maltese postcode has three letters, a space and four digits, in capitals: HMR 1428. The letters identify the locality.[1]
- The locality name goes on its own line, in capitals, with the postcode on the line below it: IL-HAMRUN, then HMR 1428.[1]
- Locality names and the country name must be printed in upper case, as must the postcode.[1]
- Each line holds at most 40 characters including spaces, and punctuation is recommended only where it is part of a proper name.[1]
- A PO box line reads Kaxxa Postali and the number in place of the street.[1]
- Personal postcodes covering a particular area are also in use in Malta and may not follow the same format.[1]
