Questions about taxing a VW Caddy van...

Just wondering how much the tax would be on a 2016 2.0-litre Volkswagen Caddy van privately? Or how can I tax it commercially without a VAT number?

Thanks, Noel

Hi Noel,

A Caddy van with a 2.0-litre engine is going to cost you €710 per year to tax as a private vehicle. As for taxing it as a commercial, a VAT number isn’t an absolute requirement in and of itself, but you may be asked to provide proof of trading or a letter from Revenue showing that you are registered for tax as a business.
