The local authorities will ensure Malta is included in the UK’s next 'green list' of COVID-safe countries for travel, due in a few weeks, the Tourism Ministry told
Times of Malta.
The UK’s decision on Friday to omit Malta from the list of COVID-safe countries for travel from England has perplexed many.
Commercial travel for UK citizens will resume on May 17. Contrary to what the British media had predicted, Malta was left out of the UK’s first list of countries that English tourists can freely travel to without having to quarantine on their return.
The ‘green list’ will be reviewed every three weeks, meaning Malta could still be included before the end of May.
