Welcome to the Australian High Commission website. The High Commission in Malta tries to ensure that this site is a useful and informative resource for both Australians and Maltese about Australia's wide-ranging interests in Malta.
Strong ties of immigration and history between Australia and Malta form the basis of the bilateral relationship. The Maltese migrant community in Australia, the largest outside of Malta, has contributed greatly to the development of a multicultural Australia. This important connection is supported by bilateral agreements covering social security, double taxation, health services, air services and a working holiday maker scheme.
Australia and Malta are both strongly committed to the United Nations and share common interests through membership of the Commonwealth. The Governor-General of Australia, Her Excellency Ms. Quentin Bryce AC, made a State Visit to Malta from 13-15 November 2008. The President of Malta, His Excellency Dr. Edward Fenech Adami KUOM, made a State Visit to Australia from 21-28 February 2009.
Since my arrival in August 2006 the bilateral relationship has developed in various ways. I am confident that the friendly relationship between our two countries will continue to prosper in 2009
