the delegate may contact the Honorary Consul for Malta in order
to be able to apply for the Visa. Honorary Consuls are not authorised
to issue Visas but they can assist the delegate by contacting the
Immigration Police to forward the Visa application and other relevant
documents that might be required. Where there is no official Maltese
representation in a country, the delegate should apply directly
to the Immigration Police in Malta, with whom s/he should check
all the requirements that are relevant to his/her passport.
