Transport Malta has introduced new guidelines for the classification of vintage vehicles, requiring a mandatory physical inspection by the Vintage Vehicle Classification Committee for a vehicle to be officially recognised as vintage.
This initiative forms part of the government’s broader strategy, ‘Reshaping Our Mobility’, which includes a series of incentives and measures aimed at reducing the number of vehicles on Malta’s roads.
According to Transport Malta, the updated regulations are the result of months of consultation and dialogue with key stakeholders, including the Federazzjoni Maltija Vetturi Antiki (FMVA).
The FMVA, which represents the interests of Malta’s classic vehicle community, has expressed its full support for the new measures.
Gilbert Agius, Chief Officer for Land Transport at Transport Malta, explained that the revised framework is designed to safeguard genuine vintage vehicle owners from those who may have previously exploited loopholes in the system.
“In this way, every vintage number plate on our roads will become a credible certificate of the owners' work and passion for their cars," he concluded.
