Viking Crew are pleased to announce a new jurisdiction in Malta. With over 10,000 vessels sailing under the flag state of Malta, our employment, payroll and crewing services are needed in the jurisdiction now, more than ever.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfter more than eight years of employing crew on Maltese-flagged vessels, I\u2019ve witnessed first-hand how Malta has become one of the most respected and trusted names in global shipping. It\u2019s therefore with great pride that we announce the establishment of Viking Crew Malta Limited, a new company dedicated to supporting our clients and crew under the Maltese flag. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This development marks an important milestone for Viking Crew and the wider Viking Maritime Group<\/a>“, says Samuel Alabaster<\/a>, Director of Viking Crew Guernsey & Malta Ltd.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is Malta Europe\u2019s Leading Shipping Registry?<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not only has Malta become largest and most integral registries in Europe, but the state has also gradually become one of the most relied upon in the world. Flying under the flag of Malta provides ship owners with regulatory integrity, flexibility, reputational benefits and practicality.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sailing under the jurisdiction of the Maltese flag has a number of benefits, particularly from a crew management perspective, including: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Maltese Flag, Quality, Security and Trust<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Maltese flag is often associated with stability, strength and regulatory compliance. Ship owners will often operate under the Maltese flag if they are looking to run a modern and well-managed vessel.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

European Stability and Market Access<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Malta state is a registered member of the European Union. Operating under the Maltese flag gives ship owners all the benefits of a European Union Membership, including access to EU waters, trade routes and legal protection. An EU membership is a globally recognised and respected status which means Maltese flag ships are given additional benefits.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maltese Efficiency and Responsiveness<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Maltese Ship Registry is efficient, professional and forward-thinking, giving vessel owners the piece of mind that they will be supported in every aspect of vessel solutions. Whether dealing with registration, certification or compliance, the Maltese authorities remain consistently approachable and fast acting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Employment Framework in Malta: Transparent and Supportive<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Malta\u2019s system for employing seafarers remains fair and clear, making for a smooth crewing process. At Viking Crew, we are able to register crew for Maltese social security and ensure the regulatory environment is serving both employers and their crew as best as possible. Malta, as a flag state, genuinely values and prioritises the welfare of the people who keep ships moving.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
