How an address is written in Malta

This is the order Malta's postal service expects. Square brackets mark what you replace.

[Recipient name]
[Street address]
[City] [Postal code (NXR 01)]
MALTA

A postal code is optional in Malta addresses — mail is deliverable without one, though including it speeds up sorting. The postal code should be written in capital letters.

Look up a specific address

For the code covering one particular street or building, Malta's postal service publishes an official finder: www.maltapost.com/PostCode. It is authoritative and kept current, which third-party copies often are not.
