    At a guess vrt will probably be 13% of approx €15000. Take it to your local vehicle registration office and they'll decide if it needs to be weighted.

    No expert here, but if it's not being imported why would it be subject to VRT?

    Original VRT on a commercial vehicle was approx €50. When converted to Camper then change of use and new VRT fee would apply. Same would apply for example if changing a commercial jeep to a passenger jeep.
