Restaurants & Snack Bars Support Scheme

MINISTRY FOR TOURISM Malta Tourism Authority Restaurants & Snack Bars AND Support Scheme | CONSUMER PROTECTION 1

The Hospitality Sector has been very hard hit by the continued prevalence of the COVID-19 pandemic with international travel down to historically low levels. Places of social gathering and entertainment have been following restrictions in operating in response to the Health Authorities’ strategy to curb the spread of the virus. Such a situation has placed undue hardship and pressure on restaurants & snack bars which have had to endure a lengthy period of restricted operations in line with Government’s COVID-19 mitigation measures.

Following Prime Minister Robert Abela’s declaration of Government’s commitment to continue sustaining the country’s restaurants & snack bars with additional measures that go beyond the Wage Supplement, in compensation for their reduced operations, the Malta Tourism Authority is allocating a budget of Euro 2,000,000 for distribution to these establishments. All catering establishments licensed by the MTA, excluding licensed bars and clubs, will receive a €1,000 grant to mitigate the impact of the measures.
