Why Contact VRT Calculator Ireland?

Every year, thousands of drivers across Ireland import vehicles from the UK, Europe, and beyond, only to find themselves confused by the Vehicle Registration Tax process. Whether you are bringing a car over from Northern Ireland, buying a second-hand vehicle from Germany, or relocating to Ireland with your own vehicle, VRT is one of the largest upfront costs you will face. Our team hears from first-time importers and seasoned buyers alike, all looking for clarity on what they will owe before they commit. That is exactly why we built the VRT Calculator, and it is also why we are here to answer your questions when the calculator alone is not enough.

How We Can Help

We can assist you with a wide range of VRT-related queries. If your calculator result looks higher or lower than expected, we can walk you through the CO2 band assignment, the Open Market Selling Price (OMSP) that Revenue applies, and how the NOx surcharge is calculated for diesel or older petrol engines. For electric and hybrid vehicles, we can check whether you qualify for the VRT relief schemes that can reduce your bill by thousands of euros. We also regularly help users who are unsure about the import process itself, from the paperwork required at customs to booking an NCTS inspection and getting the official VRT assessment from Revenue. If you want a deeper understanding of how the system works before reaching out, our VRT Guide covers the entire import journey step by step, and our about page explains how the calculator stays accurate and up to date.

Common Questions We Receive

Some of the most frequent questions we get include: "Why is my VRT estimate different from what Revenue quoted?", "Does my electric car still qualify for the full VRT relief in 2026?", "How do I dispute an OMSP value that seems too high?", and "What documents do I need when importing from the UK after Brexit?" These are exactly the kinds of topics we cover in our blog and resource pages, but if your situation is unique or you need a second opinion, do not hesitate to get in touch. We read every message and aim to provide a helpful response within two to three business days.

For general inquiries, feedback on the calculator, or to report a potential bug, please email us directly. We aim to respond within 2-3 business days.
