Is Malta Post reliable?

Malta Post is one of the largest postal services in Europe, with more than 12 billion pieces delivered each year. It is also a major employer on the island nation, employing about 5000 people. The company’s motto “We deliver anything anywhere at any time” rings true for this small Mediterranean country as it takes pride in its reputation of being an efficient and honest service provider to both residents and international businesses operating out of Malta. The company’s extensive network of post offices throughout Malta and Gozo makes it easy to send even the smallest packages.

However, several factors can make tracking your parcels sent via Malta Post service more difficult than using other carriers like DHL or FedEx. This is due mainly because of its small size as a local carrier which results in less visibility on international tracking systems provided by global postal operators such as USPS, Royal Mail, etc. So, if you want to track your package sent through Malta Post services but don't know where to start here's how:

Packages should be first registered at one of the nearest post office branches before being handed over for shipment.
Your parcel will have a unique reference number specific only within each postal branch.

About Malta Post

MaltaPost p.l.c. is the postal service business in Malta. The public minimal company took over the postal services previously carried out by Posta Limited and started running on May 1, 1998.

MaltaPost p.l.c. was signed up with the Malta Registry of Companies as a public minimal company on 16 April 1998. In September 2007 the federal government offered 25% of its shareholding in MaltaPost to Lombard Bank plc, which successfully became the majority shareholder in the business with 60% shareholding.

In 2011 MaltaPost carried out a series of reforms, including adopting a brand-new logo.

MaltaPost inaugurated the Malta Postal Museum in June 2016.

MaltaPost provided its very first stamps on 27 May 1998, and the issue included a set of 4 celebrating the International Year of the Ocean. Less than a year after MaltaPost took over, in early 1999, the German business Bundesdruckerei started printing Maltese stamps instead of the regional company Printex Limited. MaltaPost's first conclusive was issued between 1999 and 2003, and it revealed Maltese flowers. In 2004, Printex began printing Maltese stamps when again. Ever since, the number of sets each year has increased and photography began to be used more frequently on stamps, particularly in 2008-2009. Numerous current problems are based on paintings (especially watercolors developed by Cedric Galea Pirotta) or images or graphic designs designed by MaltaPost itself. Lots of stamps are based on local subjects, and English is the predominant language on stamps. MaltaPost takes part in numerous stamp-issuing programs including EUROPA and SEPAC.

Given that 2003 there have been a great deal of sets with high values when standard local postage is EUR0.26, but although these are mainly planned for collectors, greater values are still used on parcels or registered letters given that postage labels are not utilized as often in Malta as in other countries.
