I want to import a used Fiat Doblo van.

I want to import a used Fiat Doblo highroof van with 1.9 JTD diesel engine year 2007, mileage 114,000. This has been professionally converted to a two-berth caravan. Can you estimate VRT, VAT and any other costs

Thanks

Hi Gerry,

Well you won’t have to pay VAT as it’s too old for that, but as for VRT it’s very hard for us to say. There are very few Doblo-based campers on the market for us to be able to try and work out a rough value, and none that we can find in Ireland so quite what view Revenue might take of its value is totally up in the air. Our best guess is that its Irish Open Market Selling Price will be around €7,000, which, with a VRT rate of 13.3 per cent, would suggest a VRT charge of around €800 to €1,000.
