Overview
Malta is listed in the Visa Atlas directory with stable ISO codes MT/MLT, capital Valletta. This directory covers 196 countries: the 193 United Nations member states plus the Holy See, the State of Palestine and Kosovo. That is a chosen editorial scope, not a universally accepted count — recognition and membership differ between organisations and governments, and listing a place here implies no political position.

Official guidance
Source checkedThis is the official page Visa Atlas opened for Malta. It is the authority for visa categories, requirements, fees and processing times — those are not restated here unless an official schedule has been recorded field by field.
Visa - IdentitàNo country-specific summary has been quoted from this page yet, so nothing is paraphrased here. Open the official link above for the current rules.

A Schengen short-stay visa is not a long-stay or national visa and does not grant the right to work. Stays beyond 90 days, study, and employment are governed by each member state's national rules, which are not seeded here.
