Primary medical certificate

Kaleb2015

Hello, i recently received the primary medical certificate for my 4 year old son who can't walk. The certificate came with no information whatsoever on how to go about it so I'm completely confused. I got a 2013 prius jap import about two weeks ago which the dealership registered before I collected it.

Since then I got my online details for the revenue and tried to do the forms there but it left me even more confused. There's a VRTVPD2 which i assume i dont have to fill out because i purchased the car from a dealership. Then there is the IVA/COC/ECWVTA. The IVA part. Is that just for brand new cars? Also does it have to be adapted to get the relief for vrt, tax, toll exemption and fuel costs. Because of his age we dont need to adapt it just yet but when he is older we will so we would hardly have to wait until then would we?

The COC/ECWVTA (certificate of conformity). Do we have to do that or is that something the dealership would have done when registering the car?

I think this should answer most of, if not all of your queries. Citizens info office will also give expert guidance on navigating the process

As far the VRT rebate check here (and also at the end about making the application): https://www.revenue.ie/en/importing-vehicles-duty-free-allowances/documents/vrt/vrt7.pdf
specifically Page 11, Part 7, point 3.

3. The vehicle must be specially constructed or adapted for the passenger to travel
in and must have been purchased primarily for the transportation of that person.
If the passenger can travel in an unadapted vehicle, they do not come within the
scope of the scheme

Miike.

You are correct.
The vehicle must be adapted for that person.
If the car was adapted before you purchased it you can claim VAT back.
No adaption: you are not eligible for scheme.

You have to have the car adapted as said above,
