(1) Abortion is prohibited in all circumstances. Anyone performing an abortion – or a woman who performs one on herself or consents to the procedure – can be jailed for between 18 months and three years. A physician, surgeon, obstetrician, or pharmacist who performs an abortion faces a jail term of 18 months to four years and a lifelong ban from exercising his or her profession.
The government and bishops on the island objected strongly to moves in 2000 to perform abortions on a ship in international waters off Malta.
(2) Conditions: Abortion is allowed in England, Wales and Scotland to save a woman’s life, for health, economic or social reasons. Two registered medical practitioners must certify that the required medical grounds have been met.

world abortion laws
“Since 1998, the Center for Reproductive Rights has produced the World’s Abortion Laws map to visually compare the legal status of abortion across the globe. The interactive map is updated in real time to keep pace with changes in how countries are protecting – or denying – women’s reproductive freedom.”
