    Posting on behalf of MAG Ireland:

    This may be of interest to the group... If you have a bike (or any other vehicle) which is off the road there are new rules as and from today. You need to declare it off the road or you'll be liable for arrears since the last tax disc expired. Details on the MAG site at: http://www.magireland.org/2013/news-media/vehicle-off-the-road-act-now/

    i though if your bike is off the road you need to declare it anyway, when applyinig for new tax disc. stamped form from guards would do the job. now whats the difference?

    Like it says on the MAG site, either you declare it off the road in the next three months, or you're liable for the road tax due since the expiry of the last disc.

    So it's like the SORN system in the UK? (Statutory Off Road Notice)

    I crashed the bike last September, the tax expired in November. Right now, it's still off the road, could be another 3 or 4 months before it's rebuilt, will I have to do this now or will I only need to worry about it from October?

    Essentially, yes.

    As long as you declare it off the road before 1 October you should be OK.

    If you don't, you'd have to tax it from last November.
