This has been discussed here before... Best if you search the site using the search box (magnifying glass) on top of the page.
Also, check the Transport Malta website: http://www.transport.gov.mt/land-transp … individual

Bringing my car to Malta from the UK. Best to visit the Malta gov web site for the documents & requirement needed, be prepared for a lot of documents required.

thank you guys for the info... i have done quite some research about it, i dont think its worth it, unless you are ready to bring your car from your country and exempt the registration tax, then the paper work is a whole lot of time and mess.

Seems like this only applies to cars that you have owned for 24 consecutive months, prior to moving to malta?:
