Bound by Regulation (EC) No 539/2001, modified by Regulation n 2414/2001 and by Regulation n 453/2003, the list of third-countries whose nationals are subject to the visa requirement, when travelling to Malta and/or any other EU Member State is as follows: AFGHANISTAN ALBANIA ALGERIA ANGOLA ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA ARMENIA AZERBAIJAN BAHAMAS BAHRAIN BANGLADESH BARBADOS BELARUS BELIZE BENIN BHUTAN BOSNIA-HERZEGOVINA BOTSWANA BURKINA FASO BURMA/MYANMAR BURUNDI CAMBODIA CAMEROON CAPE VERDE CENTRAL AFRICAN REP CHAD CHINA COLOMBIA COMOROS CONGO COTE D’IVOIRE CUBA DEM REP OF CONGO DJIBOUTI DOMINICA DOMINICAN REPUBLIC ECUADOR EGYPT EQUATORIAL GUINEA ERITREA ETHIOPIA GRENADA GUINEA GUINEA-BISSAU GUYANA HAITI INDIA INDONESIA IRAN IRAQ JAMAICA JORDAN KAZAKHSTAN KENYA KIRIBATI KUWAIT KYRGYZSTAN LAOS LEBANON LESOTHO LIBERIA LIBYA MADAGASCAR MALAWI MALDIVES MALI MARSHALL ISLANDS MAURITANIA MAURITIUS MICRONESIA MOLDOVA MONGOLIA MONTENEGRO MOROCCO MOZAMBIQUE NAMIBIA NAURU NEPAL NIGER NIGERIA NORTH KOREA PHILIPPINES QATAR RUSSIA RWANDA SAMOA SAO TOME & PRINCIPE SAUDI ARABIA SENEGAL SERBIA SEYCHELLES SIERRA LEONE SOLOMON ISLANDS SOMALIA SOUTH AFRICA SRI LANKA ST KITTS & NEVIS ST LUCIA ST VINCENT SUDAN SURINAME SWAZILAND SYRIA TAJIKISTAN TANZANIA THAILAND TIMOR-LESTE TOGO TONGA TRINDAD & TOBAGO TUNISIA TURKEY TURKMENISTAN TUVALU UGANDA UKRAINE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES UZBEKISTAN VANUATU VIETNAM YEMEN FIJI FYROM GABON GAMBIA GEORGIA GHANA NORTHERN MARIANAS (IS) OMAN PAKISTAN PALAU PAPUA NEW GUINEA PERU ZAMBIA ZIMBABWE A limited set of derogations and exceptions exist for specific categories of persons, notably on grounds of international law or custom.
