Hello!

I just bought a car in UK and would to ship that to Malta in nearest time.

I found the documents what is required for shipping, but not 100% sure at all them what kind of papers they are and how to get them:

These is clear for me what it is
Export certificate or logbook +
MOT or test certificate +
Road insurance or green card valid for Malta +
Forms VEH01, VEH02 and VEH03 from Transport Malta +

I am a bit stuck with these three:
- Certificate of conformity
- Money for registration taxes - I guess this is I need to be able to pay a registration fee.
- Make sure the car has been in your possession for at least six months and is registered as such on the car documents before importing the vehicle. This is a legal requirement in Malta.

About the last point I am really confused....

Does anybody know, what kind of doc it is?

Also may be somebody knows and can advise the companies who can deliver the car by trailer to Malta?

Thank you in advance for the assistance

hi. we are having a car collected from our house in the UK tomorrow to be shipped to Malta. The company UK to Malta will sort out the Maltese registration and all other documents. All one of us needs to do is be in Malta in about 10 days time to take the Maltese insurance documents to the company they can do the registration.
