Abstract	Ultracold gases in optical lattices are of great interest, because these systems bear a great potential for applications in quantum simulations and quantum information processing, in particular when using particles with a long-range dipole-dipole interaction, such as polar molecules. In an previous paper, the authors showed the preparation of a Mott-like state of molecules. The molecules are produced from an atomic Mott insulator with a density profile chosen such that the central region of the gas contains two atoms per lattice site. A Feshbach resonance is used to associate the atom pairs to molecules. Remaining atoms can be removed with laser light. In this paper, the transport properties in the Mott-like state is studied. A molecule can tunnel with an amplitude $J_{m}$ to an adjacent site. If there is already another molecule at that site the molecules can collide inelastically, leading to loss of both molecules from the sample. This loss occurs with a rate coefficient Gamma which is typically much faster than $J_{m}/planck.$ The fast on-site loss leads to a suppression of tunneling. Loss from the initial state effectively occurs with a rate $Gamma_{eff}$ prop $J_{m}$ $^{2}/Gamma$ . This effect is studied experimentally at different lattice depths and the results are compared with theoretical predictions.
