Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 11 March 2021
58. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Finance when the central vehicle registrations office will register a vehicle for VRT (details supplied); the reason for the delay in same; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13848/21]
View answerI am advised by Revenue that the vehicle in question was registered for Vehicle Registration Tax (VRT) purposes on 2 March 2021.
Revenue has also advised me that the delay in completing the registration process for the vehicle was due to the higher than normal volumes of applications received in late 2020 and early 2021. Revenue has confirmed that the backlog in applications is largely cleared and registrations are being completed in a timely manner.
