All migrants who arrive at the shores of Malta are sytematically detained. Malta applies a policy of administrative detention with a maximum length of 18 months. In reality, a certain amount of vulnerable persons - including children and pregnant women - are realesed within a months time, but the vast majority is released only after 10 to 12 months. After detention, the migrants live in different open centres on the island.
