Registration of vehicles tax Malta has among the highest registration fees for most types of vehicles Some concessions were made in the 2008 budget, as of 1 January 2009, which reduced the tax on certain vehicles and small medium size, but more for the larger the new system has been introduced to encourage us to buy import more environmentally friendly cars so that the calculations involve RV stored value, the length of the car, the volumes of carbon dioxide emissions and volumes of diesel particulate matter only in addition, the new system is an exemption helpful individuals relocating to Malta will be able to bring in a car they've owned two or more years without paying the car registration tax here This exemption is limited to one vehicle per person relocation.
major interest to those who bring a car in Malta is the record value RV The old system depended on an assessment carried out by the Malta Transport Authority and was a matter a bit hit and I heard but now, to quote official document from 1 January 2009, the evaluation system is replaced by a new system that will take into account the depreciation rate and residual value of a similar vehicle in Malta, and is available online the system allows the user to calculate the tax that would be due if the vehicle was to be registered.
tax rates vehicle registration have long been a subject of controversy among the Maltese local residents and entering the latter often left facing an unpleasant fiscal shock when their tourist stay period of temporary vehicle license six months on the vehicle up may still be the case when the RV calculations are made, that you face registration taxes for vehicles that are higher than the real value of the car but since the price of used cars hold Malta see photo above for how we keep our cars going, you might end up selling here and not lose too much long term, depending on the type of vehicle and its application.
If you end up driving a car with foreign plates for several months here, but your six months, the period of temporary permit that you should get it sooner than later in your stay, you might be arrested by ADT Malta Transport Authority officials are side road, on the spot checks, they can be rushed.

Here is a car import tale Bringing the car was easy enough that you give visitors a permit six months, however, the trouble started after the permit ran We were asked to pay huge rights on the car, I think that it was about 60 of the total value of the car for Malta recording or return to the United Kingdom Finally, after many meetings and heated discussions my husband ended up meeting both the Ministers of Finance and transport headed note Malta is small, and if your company has weight or you have connections, it is possible to them to agree on an exemption for cars of foreign personnel entering our firm what we wanted to say that due pay a relatively small fee to get registered ADT appears to have tightened significantly lower on foreign cars our main issues were 1 and 2 functions ch amp mines set a procedure for the registered car.
Can I do it again Maybe if the service laws were relaxed, but at the moment none was important hassle and meant we could not t drive the car for months after the license had expired a guy I know in the same company had seized his car and was told to either pay the fee or put the car on the next ferry to Malta.
Another person of experience, we now have some sort of agreement on the vehicle license fee because we had the car over 2 years and thus completed another criterion we paid around 300 for the record ADT, but have our plates in the UK and logbook essentially means that we can not sell the car here, unless of course we pay import duties, which seems to be evaluated as a word not -officiel has on the state of your car; if it looks a little banged up, you're more likely to get a lower rate.
My cousin Malta wants to be a car for her here in England and drive down to Malta and back home We were on a Maltese government website to calculate the taxes I will be buying the car a month before take down I've been put off by others saying it is impossible that I have not the car owner for a period of time and may be leaving Malta with the car and did not give him my cousin Someone one has information about this is there benefit to put his name here in England and I will get a temporary insurance for me, I'll try the DVLA again Monday, but yesterday could not even talk to everyone that all options ended with a recorded message.

Hi, I accepted a job offer with a Maltese company and I go to Malta later in June, I want to bring my 5 year old made his Yaris 100,000 miles with me and wondered if I could keep on plates UK for 6 months before making the leap to save locally This is because I will be on probation for the first 6 months of my new job and if things don t work, I'll have to return to United Kingdom is it likely that I will be arrested by the traffic police often I wonder if the tax is likely to be less after the car was in Malta for six months A big thank you for your help and apologies if the answer to my question is already in the best wishes Michael wire.
