Malta 🇲🇹
Country District Guide
✅ Prostitution Legal
Malta utilizes an abolitionist legal framework where the personal exchange of sex is decriminalized but actively suppressed through tangential legislation. Loitering, soliciting, operating brothels, and living on the earnings of sex work are explicitly outlawed beneath the Criminal Code. A vibrant historic localized industry based heavily around naval ports (such as Strait Street in Valletta) has entirely dissolved in modern decades.
