Costs to import a classic from the Netherlands?
Hi.I am planning to import a vintage car from the Netherlands to Ireland. I am not a collector, I plan to drive the car on weekends. I would like to know how much it would cost me if the value of the car is 10k euros. Thank you!
Our answer:
Hi Robert,
Assuming it's over 30 years old, then it's very simple - it'll just be a flat rate of €200 VRT to import it, then €55 for a year of motor tax and whatever it costs to get a new set of registration plates made up.
