Are there EU tariffs on used Chinese imports?

The question

Hi,

I'm looking to purchase an MG ZS electric car in the north and import to the south (Cork). The vehicle I'm looking at is a 2023 52kW version. Vehicle seems to meet all criteria (registered in NI, over six months old, over 6,000km, privately owned), but the dealer said he can’t export MGs because of EU tariffs.

Is this the case with all Chinese brands?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Kevin,

Going on the information you’ve provided, we don’t believe there would be any EU tariffs applied to this vehicle as it is already within the “customs union” registered and used in Northern Ireland.
