Vehicle registration tax (VRT) is charged on a motor caravan (camper van) at the rate of 13.3% of its open market selling price (OMSP). The OMSP of a used motor caravan is the price, inclusive of all taxes and duties, which, in Revenue's opinion, it might reasonably be expected to fetch on first arm's length retail sale in the State.
The OMSP will be determined by Revenue at the time the motor caravan is presented for registration. I am advised by Revenue that there is insufficient information available to provide an estimate of the VRT for the vehicle in question.
