Its straight forward and I think free.
You can get an import pack fromÌý the DVLAÌý that explains it all.

Thankyou

Hello,
It's pretty straightforward indeed. You'll have to take the car throgh a road worthiness testthough. Some general EU-wide rules can be found here: europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/vehicles/registration/formalities/index_en.htm

There is no EU‑wide law on vehicle registration. So not much point in giving himÌý a link to "general EU rules".
The UK rules are operated by the DVLA and enforced by the UK police.

Hi tearnet,
taking a car to a different EU country has implications not only regarding registration, but also on when you have and don't have to register the car in another country, on VAT and so on, and there are EU-wide rules on that. Where there are no common EU rules, it's possible to link to the different national rules, as you can see for example if you follow the link in my former postÌý

The original posting was a question regarding taking a car from Malta back to the UK.

I still do not see the relevance of a link to EU guidelines when the only rules he needs to comply with on his returnÌý are the UK ones.
All the rest is just EU bureaucrats trying to justify the high wages they award themselves by churning out more and more "guidelines" or policy documents.

Sorry, off topic (its my anti EU rant).Ìý Ìý
