No visa. Irish passport holders do not need a visa to enter Malta.

Irish citizens may stay for up to 3 months without registering. For stays longer than 3 months, the page advises registering with Identity Malta. A valid passport or passport card is required, and an Irish passport should be valid for the duration of the stay.
