The KPMG Malta Shipping Team is closely following the
everchanging scenario and consequences that COVID-19 is having on
ship owners, ship managers, surveyors, classification societies and
of course the most affected category, seafarers.
The Malta flag being the 6th Flag in the world and
1st in Europe in terms of tonnage with over 8,000 ships
and 800 yachts and super-yachts has been significantly affected by

and explain measures adopted across Europe to reduce the impact of
COVID-19 on your operations. By liaising with us, we are in a
