Lie detector in Valletta: specialist visit or online test today

Questions about the test in Valletta

• Where can I take a lie detector test in Valletta?

  We have no office in Malta, so there are two options. You can take the VerifEye online test today on your phone, in a quiet room at home or at work. The EyeDetect test takes place during a specialist visit, in your office or a rented room in Valletta. We can just as easily come to Sliema, St Julian's or another town in Malta.

• How much does a polygraph test cost in Valletta?

  VerifEye online test: UAH 2,500 (≈ €49) for one question, UAH 4,000 (≈ €78) for three, UAH 6,000 (≈ €116) for six, with no extra charges. EyeDetect with a visit: from UAH 10,000 (≈ €194) for one question and UAH 15,000 (≈ €291) for three, plus travel from Lviv and the venue. Prices are in hryvnias; euro amounts are approximate, at the NBU rate of 15.09.2026.

• How long is the wait for a visit to Valletta, and how does it work?

  We plan trips to Malta once several requests come in from the region, so we cannot tell you in advance how long the wait will be. Once the date is agreed, a specialist arrives with EyeDetect equipment, and the test takes place in your office or a rented room. If you need an answer sooner, you can take the VerifEye online test today: the test takes 15–20 minutes, and the PDF report comes within 5 minutes after the test.

• How long does the specialist's trip to Valletta take, and what does a ticket cost?

  Malta is an island, so there is no direct bus or train from Lviv, and the trip has two legs. Lviv to Kraków is about 341 km and 3.8 hours by road, not counting the queue at the border. Then comes the Ryanair flight to Malta airport: 2 hours 35 minutes by timetable, and 2 hours 40 minutes from 25 October 2026. It runs daily, and a one-way ticket costs roughly UAH 1,130–4,660 (€22–90) in October and UAH 1,130–7,920 (€22–154) in November. Rzeszów is closer — 172 km and 2.4 hours by road. But flights to Malta run only on Tuesdays and Saturdays, and the last one scheduled is 24 October 2026. A one-way ticket costs UAH 1,030–5,770 (€20–112). There are also daily flights from Warsaw Modlin (about 3 hours, UAH 1,080–9,580) and flights on most days from Katowice (about 2 hours 45 minutes, UAH 1,290–8,300). Ryanair charges UAH 1,110–3,090 (€21.49–59.99) per flight for a 20 kg checked bag with the equipment, if it is paid for at booking. Malta airport to Valletta is about 10 km and 20 minutes by road. There is one surface option — through Sicily. The Virtu Ferries catamaran from Pozzallo to Malta takes 1 hour 45 minutes by timetable. By car from Lviv it is about 2,870 km and 32 hours of pure driving including two ferries. All amounts are one way; travel and the venue are paid separately from the test, and we will give you the exact round-trip amount once the dates are known.

• Can my partner take a lie detector test for infidelity in Valletta?

  Yes. The test checks one specific suspicion, for example infidelity over a certain period. The partner under suspicion takes it, or both partners take separate tests. The test is voluntary and requires written consent. The VerifEye online test costs from UAH 2,500 (≈ €49), and you do not need to wait for a visit.

• In what language can I take the test in Valletta?

  You can take the test in Ukrainian, Russian, English or German. English is one of Malta's official languages, so that option suits many people here. We do not run the test in Maltese. We draw up the questions together with you, and the person reads them in advance.

• Is a lie detector test legal in Malta?

  We found no Maltese law that mentions a polygraph, a lie detector or truth testing by eye movements. We read the full texts of the Criminal Code (Cap. 9), the Code of Organization and Civil Procedure (Cap. 12), the Police Act (Cap. 164), the Security Service Act (Cap. 391), the Employment and Industrial Relations Act (Cap. 452), the Prisons Act (Cap. 260) and several other acts. So a private voluntary test is neither specifically banned nor licensed — it is simply unregulated, and only the personal data rules apply. Malta is an EU member state, so the GDPR applies directly, and the Data Protection Act (Cap. 586, in force since 28 May 2018) implements and further specifies it. The supervisory authority is the Information and Data Protection Commissioner (IDPC), and its decisions are appealed to the Information and Data Protection Appeals Tribunal. We test only with written consent, and minors only with written consent from their parents and with the parents present. The rules for employees and job candidates are stricter. The IDPC says employee consent is generally not a valid legal basis because of the power imbalance with the employer, so another basis is needed, such as legitimate interest under GDPR article 6(1)(f), with a check of necessity and of whether a less intrusive method exists. On candidates, the IDPC writes about pre-employment medical examinations: they may be required only where the job calls for it, candidates should be told at interview stage, and a candidate may not be rejected solely for refusing. By analogy we assume that testing candidates on a lie detector faces at least the same necessity and proportionality requirements. Talk to a lawyer before testing staff. We found no IDPC guidance specifically on polygraphs or eye-movement testing. A search of the eCourts judgments database for "polygraph" and "lie detector" returns no Maltese judgment, and the Criminal Code and the Code of Organization and Civil Procedure do not mention such evidence. Admissibility in Malta therefore remains unclear, and our result is not court evidence.
