How much to import a 2022 MG5 from the North?

The question

Hi,

I'm looking at buying in Northern Ireland, a 2022 MG5 61.1kWh Exclusive Long Range  with 22,000 miles on the clock for £13,000. It was previously owned in N.I. What can I expect to pay in VRT, VAT and other import charges?

Thanks

Hi Sean,

Great news - this should cost you almost nothing to import so long as you can prove that the car has been registered and used in the North for a "reasonable amount of time" according to Revenue. That will mean no VAT or import duty. Then, as it's an EV, the VRT rebate applicable at the time of writing means you'll pay no VRT on this car.
