VRTs now accepted by Transport Malta for registration of used vehicles brought into Malta from an EU Country

Malta Independent Wednesday, 2 July 2014, 11:03 Last update: about 11 years ago

Transport Malta would like to inform the public that as from the beginning of July, it will be also accepting valid roadworthiness certificates (VRT’s) (showing the latest odometer reading) instead of odometer certificates when registering used vehicles coming from EU countries. The validity of a vehicle roadworthiness certificate is normally determined from the expiry date printed on the same certificate.

In this regard, anyone bringing a vehicle into Malta from any Member State will be able to either:

1)     Present an original valid roadworthiness certificate (VRT) issued in another Member State and showing the latest odometer reading by any approved entity as shown below:

VOSA UK (Vehicle and Operator Services Agency) or ANY Vehicle Road Worthiness Testing/Inspection Station (VRT) issuing Odometer Certificates within the European Union; or

2)     Present an original valid odometer certificate issued by any one of the approved entities as shown below:

·         JEVIC UK LTD, United Kingdom

·         CAR PASS, Belgium

Transport Malta will still reserve the right to verify the authenticity of the documents presented and/or the odometer reading in accordance with Paragraph 6(4)(i) of the Registration and Licensing of Motor Vehicles Regulations (SL 368.02).
