Payroll Reporting in Malta

FS3, FS5 and FS7 are the core payroll reporting requirements in Malta. 

Understanding how they work helps ensure accurate reporting and smooth payroll management.

FS5: Monthly Tax & NI Payment

The FS5 is the monthly payroll report used to declare salaries, tax and social security contributions.

  • Who is Responsible: Every employer registered and operating in Malta.
  • Key Deadlines: Submission and payment must be completed by the last working day of the month following the payroll period.

FS3: Yearly Employee Statement

FS3 Overview

​

The FS3 is the annual payroll statement that summarises an employee’s earnings, tax and contributions for the year.

​

It supports accurate personal tax reporting and provides a clear record of payroll information.

Responsibility & Timeline

Employers are legally required to issue an FS3 form to every employee by the 31st of January. Additionally, an annual reconciliation must be submitted electronically to the Commissioner for Revenue to verify the year's total contributions.

FS7: Annual Reconciliation

The Purpose

The FS7 is the Annual Reconciliation Statement. It serves as a final consolidation of all tax and social security contributions paid throughout the fiscal year, verifying that monthly totals align with year-end summaries.

Submission Rules

Employers must submit the FS7 by February 15th for the previous calendar year. It must perfectly reconcile monthly FS5 payments with individual FS3 employee forms to avoid audits.
