Why Ferrari is Popular in Ireland
Ferrari still represents the ultimate aspiration for many car enthusiasts in Ireland. Imports happen regularly — but here's the reality check: these are high-emission vehicles. On a Ferrari, the VRT bill alone can be tens of thousands of euros, because it's based on the Irish OMSP multiplied by the applicable CO2 band rate. The 41% band applies to most variants.

Ferrari VRT Bands in Ireland
Irish VRT works on a CO2 percentage system — lower emissions mean a lower rate. The 2026 bands run from 7% at the cleanest end up to 41% for the highest emitters. Here's the full breakdown: 0-50g/km is 7%, 51-80g/km is 9%, 81-85g/km is 9.75%, 86-90g/km is 10.5%, 91-95g/km is 11.25%, 96-100g/km is 12%, 101-105g/km is 12.75%, 106-110g/km is 13.5%, 111-115g/km is 15.25%, 116-120g/km is 16%, 121-125g/km is 16.75%, 126-130g/km is 17.5%, 131-135g/km is 19.25%, 136-140g/km is 20%, 141-145g/km is 21.5%, 146-150g/km is 25%, 151-155g/km is 27.5%, 156-170g/km is 30%, 171-190g/km is 35%, and anything at 191g/km or above hits the maximum 41%.
Electric Ferrari models qualify for up to €5,000 VRT relief, tapering to zero at €50,000 OMSP. The plug-in hybrid relief that existed before ended on 31 December 2021 and is no longer available.
Ferraris, being supercars, tend to have high CO2 emissions — most variants will sit in the upper VRT bands. This is worth factoring in when you're working out the total cost of importing one.
Importing a Ferrari to Ireland
Importing a Ferrari from the UK or EU follows the standard Irish process: any applicable customs duty, Irish VAT at 23%, then a visit to the Revenue VRT office with your registration document, proof of purchase, Certificate of Conformity, and NOx emissions data. Revenue sets the OMSP and applies the CO2-based rate. The process generally takes two to four weeks.
Lower-CO2 and electric Ferrari models make more sense from a VRT perspective. But let's be honest — most Ferraris emit well over 190g/km, putting them in the 41% band. On a high-value supercar, that's a very notable sum on top of an already substantial purchase price.
Ferrari VRT FAQs
How is VRT calculated on a Ferrari imported to Ireland?
It uses the standard CO2-based system for all Irish imports. Revenue calculates the OMSP, applies age-related depreciation (10% at 1-2 years up to 50% over 5 years), then applies the CO2-band percentage rate. Electric Ferrari models qualify for up to €5,000 VRT relief. Plug-in hybrid relief ended on 31 December 2021.
Which Ferrari model has the lowest VRT?
Electric Ferrari models get up to €5,000 VRT relief, making them the cheapest option for VRT purposes. For petrol models, it depends entirely on the CO2 figure — always check the official WLTP number for the exact variant you're looking at.
Does importing a Ferrari save money?
Importing can save versus Irish forecourt prices, but you must add VRT, any customs duty, and 23% VAT. Compare the total landed cost before committing.
