1 mission of Malta in Montenegro: Consulate of Malta in Bar, Montenegro. Addresses, phones and contacts.
Head of mission: Mr. Mousu Tiziano, Honorary Consul (confirmed in the diplomatic list of Montenegro, 20 Nov 2024)
Malta is an appealing destination for some Montenegrins due to its rich history, culture, and strategic location in the Mediterranean. With around one million international visitors annually, it offers a unique blend of historical sites and contemporary tourism that could attract a segment of Montenegro's one million residents.
Malta is generally safe for tourists, including those from Montenegro, but it does have some differences in safety rankings. According to safety rankings for walking alone at night, Malta is ranked 26th out of 40 countries, while Montenegro is ranked higher at 10th. In terms of crime statistics, Malta has a lower murder rate of 0.4 per 100,000 people compared to Montenegro's 2.4. Additionally, Malta has no recorded female murders, whereas Montenegro has a rate of 0.6. However, when looking at organized crime indices, Montenegro scores higher in several categories, indicating more significant challenges with mafia groups and crime networks, while Malta has lower scores in these areas, suggesting a safer environment regarding organized crime. Overall, while Malta may not be as safe as Montenegro in some aspects, it remains a relatively safe destination for tourists.
