Hi All,
we´re moving to Malta at the end of the month, a friend of the family is moving our stuff in a transit van. We already live in Spain but he is coming from the UK. Other than petrol and ferry costs is there any other charges he is likely to come across for example at Malta customs???
Thanks

No, If he is travelling on the Livorno ferry, you normally only drive off when you get to Valletta.

Don't forget the Tolls though through France and Italy.

There are a number of 'toll' fees to cover from the UK down to Spain as well.

When we moved over from Spain, we actually caught the Barcelona to Girona Ferry and then just had the short hop down to Livorno...

Thanks, I´ll look up all the tolls and get the route sorted. Just wanted to make sure we covered him with enough money for the trip :)
