Do I just pay VRT importing this Audi from the North?

Will I have to pay just the VRT if i import a Jan 2024 Audi Q4 e-tron 45 S line with 10,000km on the clock from Northern Ireland (no VAT or import duty)? It was only registered in Northern Ireland, never in the UK. I'm finding the Revenue wording difficult to follow.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Paddy,

Yes, the official wording isn't the easiest. We are working on improving our guide to it all.

So long as that Audi is over six months old and has done more than 6,000km since new a the point of import south then no VAT or import duty should be payable, just VRT.
