Students
The Ministry for Education has run a free internet scheme for post-secondary students, delivered through participating providers. Check whether it is open and whether you qualify before paying for a plan. If you share a flat, one no-contract home plan split between flatmates is usually cheaper than several mobile plans. For a single person, an unlimited mobile plan without a contract starts at €25.99 a month (GO Freedom Data).
Short lets
- Ask the landlord whether internet is included and who the account holder is before you sign the lease.
- Check for an existing Melita cable socket or GO fibre point. Reconnecting an existing line is faster than a new installation.
- If you might leave within two years, compare the total cost of a no-contract plan with a contract plan plus its early-termination fee.

Frequently asked questions
Can I get home internet in Malta without a contract?
Yes. The cheapest option without a contract currently listed is Starlink Residential 100, with a true monthly cost of €64.08 over a year. Several contract plans are also sold without a contract at a higher monthly price.
What is the best internet option for a short stay in Malta?
For a few weeks, a mobile plan with plenty of data used as a hotspot is usually simplest. For a few months, a 4G/5G plug-in router or a no-contract home plan avoids installation delays and termination fees.
Is there free internet for students in Malta?
The Ministry for Education has run a free internet scheme for post-secondary students, delivered through participating providers. Check the current eligibility and terms with the ministry or the provider before paying for a plan.
What happens if I leave a 24-month contract early?
Early-termination fees usually apply, often linked to the remaining months or the value of promotions received. If you may leave Malta within two years, a no-contract plan can cost less overall.
