As from today June 28th, people applying for the new biometric passports in Malta, are required to provide two fingerprints as per EU regulations.
Old passports can continue to be used till expiry. The fingerprints used with the new biometric passports will be deleted six months after the legal documents' expiry, and cannot be used in police investigations.
Biometric passports, also known as E-passports, contain information stored both on paper and electronically on a chip thus creating an unrivaled level of security and protection against counterfeit and fraudulent identification papers.
