Political Dialogue: Bilateral relations with Malta are considered very good and political dialogue has been developed at the highest levels. Diplomatic relations between Albania and Malta were established on March 5, 1973. Malta has been and remains a determined supporter of Albania’s European integration agenda.

Economic Cooperation: There are a number of important bilateral agreements, including that of the protection and promotion of investments, the agreement for the avoidance of double taxation.

Trade exchanges with Malta have great potential for further growth. We consider with interest the expansion of cooperation with Malta in the economic field, in several sectors: the trade sector (especially electronics and textiles), tourism (health tourism); infrastructure, aquaculture, financial services and consultancy, renewable energy etc.
