Will the BMW X5 hybrid's VRT drop in 2021?
Hi,
The BMW X5 plug-in hybrid emits 77g/km and is 14 per cent VRT rate. Will this go down to 9 per cent VRT in January 2021?
Thanks
John, Cork.

Will VRT change my new car price in 2021?
We ordered a new car before the 2021 budget and paid a deposit. Even though the car won't be delivered until January 2021, I presume the new VRT rates will not change the price we agreed with the dealer?

VRT for 211 BMW X3 xDrive20d?
What is the VRT rate for a 211 BMW X3 xLine xDrive20d? Let's say if I put in a factory order now and the car arrives in the middle of January, will I be charged under the new VRT rate?

Can I pay a portion of the VRT?
Hi there,
In July I imported a 2019-reg car and was exempt paying VRT on it due to transferring residence back to Ireland. If I sell the car within one year I must pay the VRT - is the VRT due calculated on a set 12 months or whatever period less 12 months (i.e. so in November say nine months VRT)?

A few questions about calculating VRT...
Hi there,
I have another question on VRT. Well actually a few questions! If you import a car from the UK in the last week of December 2020 and you have a VRT appointment in January 2021, will you be paying VRT (and possibly customs, VAT etc.) at the 2021 rate or will you still be calculated on the 2020 VRT rate?
If they change the VRT bands in the October budget will they be implemented straight away or do they wait until Jan 2021, usually?
I have looked at the Glasss guide in the UK for the vehicle that I am importing but there are no equivalents in the Irish market. Is there a way to get valuations for Irish equivalents or get my hands on the Car Sales Guide (ROI) as per the VRT request form?
Thank you in advance for any help on this matter.
