Go to your local council, they will take your photo, you pay a small fee, & they post it to you.

You don't get a tallinja card at the local council. The tallinja card is the bus card...

Maybe you mean the kartanzjan?

The local council took my photo and helped fill in my tallinja card application form. Then I received it in the post as I'm over 60

In Gozo you go to the bus terminus, perhaps you do the same in Malta.

Fair enough, that's really nice of them!
I applied online, it was really straightforward - in fact, I wasn't even in Malta when I applied, I had the card sent to a friend's address.

But you can also apply at the bus terminus.

We got ours while still UK, then when we got our residency cards, took them into Terminus in Victoria and they were converted to Concession 60+ cards on the spot...
