Isuzu VRT Calculator
Calculate VRT for your Isuzu with model-specific considerations.
Why Isuzu is Popular in Ireland
Isuzu is a Japanese manufacturer best known for robust pickups and SUVs. The brand's models are regularly imported to Ireland, and understanding the VRT implications before you buy can save you a fair bit of money. VRT is calculated on the Irish OMSP (Open Market Selling Price), not the price you pay abroad, so choosing a lower-CO2 model is the most effective way to reduce your bill.

Isuzu VRT Bands in Ireland
VRT in Ireland is charged on a CO2 percentage basis. The lower the CO2 emissions of your Isuzu, the lower the rate. The current 20-band WLTP CO2 scale ranges from 7% to 41%. The lowest band (up to 50g/km) is 7%, rising through 9% at 51–80g/km, 20% at 136–140g/km, 25% at 146–150g/km, 30% at 156–170g/km, 35% at 171–190g/km, to the top band of 41% at 191g/km and above. Electric Isuzu models qualify for up to €5,000 VRT relief (tapering to zero at €50,000 OMSP). VRT relief for plug-in hybrids ended on 31 December 2021.
Because Isuzu offers robust pickups and SUVs, buyers should compare the specific CO2 figure of each model rather than assuming all variants cost the same. Small differences in emissions can move a car between bands and change the VRT by several thousand euro.
Importing a Isuzu to Ireland
Importing a Isuzu from the UK or EU follows the standard Irish process: pay any applicable customs duty, pay Irish VAT at 23%, then present the vehicle at a Revenue VRT office with the registration document, proof of purchase, Certificate of Conformity, and NOx emissions data. Revenue assesses the OMSP and applies the CO2-based VRT rate. Allow two to four weeks for the full process.
Lower-CO2 and electric Isuzu models are the smartest imports from a VRT perspective, while high-performance variants with emissions above 190g/km sit in the top 41% band and attract the highest charges.
Isuzu VRT FAQs
How is VRT calculated on a Isuzu imported to Ireland?
VRT on a Isuzu uses the same CO2-based system as all Irish imports. Revenue assesses the OMSP, applies age-related depreciation (10% at 1-2 years up to 50% over 5 years), then charges the CO2-band percentage rate. Electric models qualify for up to €5,000 VRT relief (plug-in hybrid relief ended 31 December 2021).
Which Isuzu model has the lowest VRT?
The lowest VRT applies to the lowest-CO2 Isuzu models, especially electric variants that qualify for up to €5,000 VRT relief. Always check the official WLTP CO2 figure for the exact car.
Does importing a Isuzu 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.
