Clearing Malta customs
Because Malta is a part of the European Union, they are committed to the free movement of goods. That means you won’t need to pay duties and taxes on any shipments that are sent from within the EU. For other packages, goods of a low value are exempt from fees when clearing customs – if your parcel is worth less than €150, you don’t need to worry about duties or taxes.
Just be sure to properly declare the nature and value of your goods in your paperwork so that your fees are properly applied during the customs clearance process.

Collection & delivery
Courier collection
When you book a delivery with Parcelcompare, we could be knocking on your door just a few hours later. We can pick-up on the same day you make your booking unless you are shipping a package that is particularly bulky, in which case you will need to book a day in advance.
You need to make sure that you’re on hand when we arrive to pick up your parcel, so if you’re not available, choose our convenient drop off service, and drop your package off at a retailer local to you, at a time of your choosing.
Malta delivery
We’ll deliver on normal working days between 9am and 7pm. We don’t make deliveries on weekends or bank holidays, so keep that in mind if your shipment must be there for a specific day, for example when sending gifts of Christmas presents. Most of our partners make 3 delivery attempts as standard, however some, such as DPD only make one attempt. We therefore recommend you enter the recipients email address when booking your delivery, so we can email them to let them know when to expect delivery.
Tracking your delivery to Malta
Whether you’re sending an old book, or a jewel encrusted statue, every package that we carry is important. That’s why we give you free tracking from door to door with every shipment. That’s right – you can keep an eye on your parcel from the moment it leaves your hands until the moment we pass it over to your recipient.
And, although it’s unlikely, if something does happen to go wrong, you’ll be the first to know. We’ll email both you and your recipient to explain the problem and how to fix it.
Sending gifts to Malta
Just like sending a normal parcel to Malta, there’s no need to worry about duties and taxes when you are sending a gift. There’s also an exemption for goods being sent as a gift from outside of the EU, so gift exemptions worth less than €45 will clear customs without paying fees. Gifts worth more will be cleared as a normal package.
To take advantage of the exemption from duties and taxes for gifts, you’ll need to make it clear you are sending a gift. Don’t forget to explain the full nature and value of the goods though – simply declaring “gifts” could result in delays or extra charges. So be most specific for example ‘Gift - Children’s toy’
Large and heavy shipping to Malta
There’s nothing to fear when you’re shipping with Parcelcompare, since we carry packages of all shapes and sizes. We can even deal with full pallets that weigh as much as 1,000kg are as long as 270cm. So, whether you’re sending a piece of art to Birgu, or a freight shipment of electronic equipment to Bormla, our specialist large parcel service can meet your needs.
All you need to do is book with at least a day to spare, and make sure that you are on hand when our courier arrives to offer them assistance in loading or unloading your goods.

Packaging your parcel
With an entire ocean to traverse, it should come as no surprise that your package risks a few bumps or knocks during its journey. To make sure your goods arrive in good condition, you should properly package them.
1. Get a new box
This is the first line of defence for books and priceless statues alike. Make sure you use a new, double corrugated cardboard box – old boxes are liable to burst or be crushed on the journey.
2. Pack your box
Wrap your goods individually, after all, you don’t want them to damage each other. Surround them in your box with plenty of packaging material, and make sure they don’t move at all.
Seal your box
Your packing tape can help protect your box’s weakest points, so be generous. Wrap around your box three times in a union flag pattern, then add your labels so that all information can be seen.
Holidays and gift giving occasions in Malta
Malta is a popular holiday destination for a reason, and we like to take our opportunities to enjoy days off when they come.
We enjoy our time off as much as anyone else, and that’s why we don’t make deliveries on public holidays. You should keep the public holiday dates below in mind while you’re planning your shipment to Malta to avoid any delays.
