Inspecția dumneavoastră
The Food Safety and Security Authority (FSSA) has been the single food authority since 9 July 2025 (Act XV of 2025, Cap. 649). It registers, licenses and inspects food businesses. The Malta Tourism Authority (MTA) licenses catering places and checks the licence standards in S.L. 409.15.
Inspections are regular and happen when non-compliance is suspected, with frequency based on risk (Cap. 449, art. 26). Authorised officers can enter at reasonable times, inspect records on paper or computer, take samples and stop the use of food. They can issue an improvement notice with a deadline, or an emergency prohibition order, and the FSSA may close the premises if it is ignored. A first offence can bring a fine of €465.87 to €4,658.75 and/or up to 2 years in prison (Cap. 449, art. 43).
Evaluare igienică
Malta has no public hygiene rating, sticker or score, and nothing has to be displayed. The MTA First, Second and Third Class for restaurants is a tourism grade, not a hygiene rating.
„Legea” este o regulă obligatorie. „Îndrumările oficiale” nu sunt lege, dar inspectorii o așteaptă. „Chef Hygiene implicit” este o valoare pe care aplicația o verifică acolo unde nicio regulă nu oferă un număr.
Temperaturi
- DreptFood that can grow germs must not be kept above 8°C (S.L. 449.55, reg. 3).
- DreptMTA licence standards: fish and meat at 0–3°C in every licensed restaurant, snack bar and kiosk. Vegetables, eggs and cooked food at 2–10°C. Thawing never above 10°C (S.L. 409.15).
- DreptQuick-frozen food must be at −18°C or colder. It may rise briefly to −15°C in transport (S.L. 449.33, regs 5 and 6). The MTA standard for kitchens is also −18°C.
- DreptHot food must be kept at 63°C or more. Food on display for under 2 hours that was not displayed before is a defence (S.L. 449.55, reg. 6). Chef Hygiene checks hot holding against 65°C, the MTA figure.
- DreptMTA licence standards: buffet hot food and hot display counters at 65°C or more. Buffet cold food at 10°C or less (S.L. 409.15).
- DreptCool cooked food as quickly as possible. The regulations give no time (S.L. 449.55, reg. 8). The public health booklet (HPDP, 2025) advises small shallow containers and no more than 1 hour out of the fridge.
- DreptReheat food to a core temperature of at least 70°C, or higher if the food needs it (S.L. 449.55, reg. 10). The HPDP 2025 booklet advises 75°C.
- Îndrumări oficialeThe HPDP 2025 booklet advises cooking to 75°C, chilled food at 5°C or below and leftovers eaten within 2 days. This is public advice, not law.
Personal, instruire și sănătate
- DreptEvery food handler must be registered and hold a food handler card, shown on request. Employers may not use unregistered handlers (S.L. 449.27).
- DreptCategory B (preparing high-risk food, such as cooks) is valid for 5 years. Category A (wrapped or low-risk food, or staff who do not prepare food) is valid for 2 years. Renewal needs a new course certificate.
- DreptMTA licence standards for restaurants: staff have an MTA-recognised induction, regular training, and training on fire-fighting equipment (S.L. 409.15).
- DreptAnyone with typhoid, a salmonella or staphylococcal infection, or any infection likely to cause food poisoning, must not work with food (Cap. 449, art. 22). Infected wounds, skin infections, sores or diarrhoea: stay out of food areas and tell the employer.
- DreptThe authority can require a medical examination (S.L. 449.27, reg. 6). No fixed time off or medical certificate is set in law.
Alergeni
- DreptAllergen information on the 14 EU allergens is mandatory for food that is not prepacked (Regulation 1169/2011, art. 44).
- Chef Hygiene implicitChef Hygiene checks for a written list per dish and an “ask staff” sign. This is the app’s default.
Verificări de siguranță la incendiu
- DreptFire drills must be held at least every 6 months and recorded. A fire safety expert recognised by the Civil Protection Department (CPD) may set a longer interval in writing, never over 12 months (S.L. 646.08, reg. 9).
- DreptFire equipment must be under a suitable system of maintenance to the CPD’s satisfaction, with records (S.L. 646.08). The law gives no interval. Chef Hygiene suggests a yearly service.
- DreptMTA standards for restaurants: service date shown on each extinguisher, a maintenance certificate from a professional, an automatic fire alarm, emergency lighting, and an evacuation exercise at least yearly. The extraction hood must be properly maintained, with no interval set.
- DreptThe electrical installation and its earthing must be inspected and tested periodically by a licensed electrician, at the interval the electrician recommends (S.L. 545.24, reg. 16).
- DreptMalta has no natural gas network, only LPG cylinders. An LPG store over 150 kg or with 6 or more linked cylinders needs authorisation from the regulator REWS, valid for 10 years (S.L. 545.20). Chef Hygiene suggests a yearly check by an approved LPG installer.
Înregistrări
- DreptHACCP-based procedures are required, with records that fit the size of the business (Regulation 852/2004, art. 5).
- DreptMTA licence standards for restaurants: keep a temperature register and pest control inspection records (S.L. 409.15). Chef Hygiene asks for temperature checks twice a day.
- DreptRegister the premises with the FSSA if used 3 or more days in any 3 consecutive weeks. Report a new owner or change of business within 28 days (S.L. 449.28). The MTA catering licence runs to 31 December and is renewed each year (Cap. 409).
