Can you clarify importing an EV from the North?
I’m getting pretty confused even reading your guide on importing cars into Ireland from NI. I get that cars registered before 2021 are exempt from VAT and duty, but after that, are electric and hybrid vehicles also exempt from VAT and duty?

Hi Matthew,
The rules on VAT and import duty don't vary between different types of cars or powertrains.
