As Minister of State for International & Road Transport, Logistics, Rail & Ports, I would like to advise that the registration of vehicles, VRT and exemptions associated with same, are the responsibility of the Revenue Commissioners under the remit of the Department of Finance. Once an imported vehicle is re-registered in Ireland, the vehicle owner must pay motor tax if using the vehicle on public roads.
