Changes to Malta Social Security rates for 2026

28 November 2025

The 2026 Malta Social Security (MSS) rates have been released, with a maximum increase of approximately 3% effective from 1 January.

Under EU Regulation 883/2004, crew employed on a Malta‑flagged vessel, or by a Maltese entity, must contribute to the Maltese Social Security system.

This regulation ensures that yacht crew members receive critical benefits and legal protections while working internationally. Contributing to MSS is a legal requirement, and failing to make the correct contributions can result in fines, legal action and a loss of entitlement to benefits.

Our specialist team supports owners, captains and crew, by ensuring contributions remain accurate and compliant following the 2026 increase.

MSS rates from 1 January 2026

Malta Social Security rates from 1 January 2026

Understanding the requirements, submitting the correct forms, and keeping up to date with the latest contribution rates are key to avoiding issues and staying compliant with Maltese regulations.

We have deep experience supporting clients with crew employment and payroll services, with our team managing systems and processes to ensure the correct Malta contributions are made for all eligible crew. Crew Classic clients have direct access to our crew team, who are available to support individual crew members and answer any queries relating to social security.

Crew LITE offers a fixed monthly fee per crew member for employment and payroll services. This includes the administration of Malta Social Security and pension deductions where applicable. Captains and crew can also access our EU-hosted, self-service portal to manage their employment details, qualifications and payroll records.

For more information on the rate increases, please reach out to Client Services Officer, Fiona Millo.
