Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government

The numbers of buses taxed in each licensing authority area and the corresponding tax revenue, including arrears, is set out for the years 2011 to 2015.

Private buses are taxed on the basis of engine capacity. Rates for vehicles taxed on this basis range from €199 to €1,809 annually. The annual tax rates for large public service vehicles and youth and community buses are €154 for buses of between 9 and 20 seats, €202 for buses with 21 to 40 seats, and €403 for buses with 41 seats or more. There is a single annual rate of €95 for school buses.
