Written answers

My Department's National and Vehicle Driver File (NVDF), which contains details of registered vehicles and licensed drivers in this country, is fully capable of accommodating and processing Eircodes. The Departments online systems, including www.motortax.ie which enables vehicles be taxed online, can also accommodate Eircodes.
