Short version though as I understand the changes is that you won't be able to declare it off the road for January because it now has to be done in advance (ie: you would have had to do so back in December)

So I'm afraid you'll have to pay tax for January onwards

You can do it all online, go to motortax.ie and click on pin retrieval, enter your details and your pin will be emailed to you, proceed to the page to tax your car and at the bottom of the page there's a link to declare the car off the road

don't you have 10 days to declare when buying in this situation? or did I dream that?

You have 10 days from when the registration cert was issued
