Good evening,

My family and I are considering relocating to Malta. I got a quote from Express Trailers to get my car down to Malta. I purchased my Suzuki Grand Vitara 2.0 litre 9 years ago. The car is registered under my name. How much would it cost me to register my car in Malta? Is there a form I need to fill in advance?

Kind Regards

Nicky

Hiya

I know you will be import tax exempt as you've owned for more than 2 years but won't be able to sell without paying it..

Do u mind me asking how much they quoted u? I'm looking to get mine shipped down..

Tom
