Living in Monaghan & Working in Belfast

mumairsharif · 2013-07-14 19:55:52

Me & My wife are living in Monaghan. She is working in Monaghan & I'm working in Belfast. I've a UK Reg car that is in the name of my wife. Am I expected to pay the VRT on the car to register the car in Ireland?

Yes, unless it's a company car.

If you have lived in the UK and owned the vehicle for an extended time (6 months?) and are bringing the vehicle with you, the amount of VRT is very small.

You (your wife) have to have owned the car for 6+ months in the UK.
