The question
Bringing home a Toyota Land Cruiser 4.5 litre from Australia, I meet criteria for no VRT, but my question is, when it lands back here in Ireland can I get it registered commercially to avail of the €333 tax? It's a 2013 Land Cruiser Amazon passenger carrier

Hi Jacqui,
That's highly unlikely unless you actually convert the vehicle by removing its rear seats and fitting a bulkhead and then have it reclassified as a commercial vehicle. Even if you did all that, the annual commercial vehicle tax fee only applies to vehicles used solely for the purpose of a business, which you'd need to prove. No personal use is allowed at all.
