30a Kilmorey Street, Newry, Northern Ireland,

VRT Service

Newry Car & Van Sales offers a full vehicle import service for customers based in the Republic of Ireland who are required to pay Vehicle Registration Tax.


What is Vehicle Registration Tax? 

Vehicle Registration Tax (VRT) is a tax charged on all vehicles registered in the Republic of Ireland. This tax must be paid within 30 days of entering the state. 

The tax is calculated as a percentage of the Open Market Selling Price (OMSP). The percentage of the OMSP charged depends on the CO2 emissions of the vehicle. These percentages range from 7-41%.

There are also additional fees such as a NOx emissions fee and a tyre recycling charge which are both payable upon import.


How can Newry Car & Van Sales assist with VRT?

One of the biggest concerns that we encounter is with our customers wishing to register their car in Southern Ireland, is the unknown variable of VRT. This concern is understandable as the rules and guidelines are continuously changing.

To take this potential pitfall away from you, our customers, Newry Car & Van Sales offer a service which includes full registration in the Republic of Ireland.

• Full VRT Paperwork completed
• Full customs documentation submitted where necessary
