Maļinova (historically and locally^[1] known as Maļinovka) is a mid-size village in Maļinova parish, Daugavpils municipality, Latvia and a parish centre. It is located 19 km northeast of Daugavpils at the A13 national road/European route E262.

The inhabited locality grew up out of the former Malinovka village after World War II as a centre of a selsoviet and the Znamya Oktyabrya kolkhoz.^[2]

Today Maļinova is the home of the parish administration, a house of culture, library, feldsher station and the Elijah the Prophet Orthodox church.
