1-you don't pay vat in the UK and are given temp plates which last for 2 months
2-you pay vat on the invoice price . Keep all records to show that the invoice is right.
3-pay VRT on the omsp
the 21.5% vat is on the £14500 minus the 17.5% uk vat .
so 21.5% irish vat on £12340.
But there are bigger savings to be had on demos, massive savings in fact

Most NI and UK dealers are familiar with it. Basically it exempts UK VAT provided you export the car within 2 months. You will have to pay Irish VAT and VRT though.
Just bought new car from Belfast. Here's how it worked.
1. Paid the full price (including VAT) in NI.
2. They delivered to Dublin (they have to physically witness the car going over the border).
3. I brought invoice to VRT office. Charged 21% VAT on ex-VAT dealer price (straight conversion to Euro). Also paid 14% of an arbitrary OMSP (bore no relation to the NI price) in VRT.
4. I faxed VAT declaration to the NI dealer and they refund the VAT I paid in Belfast.
Does the VAT rebate apply to imported used cars from the UK? I assume it would but wondering if anyone has any experience. Thanks.
