Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 November 2021
243. Deputy Louise O'Reilly asked the Minister for Finance the revenue received and by type, that is, VAT or import duty on imports from Britain by month in 2020; and if the data is not available, if the global figure for such data will be provided. [57147/21]
View answerGreat Britain was still a member of the Customs Union in 2020 and as such no customs duties were payable on the free movement of goods (within the Union).
The table below provides the total (global) VAT and custom duties collected on imports in 2020 and 2021. I am advised that information specific to Great Britain is not presently available. Revenue has advised me that it will be undertaking further analysis of the data sources used to compile these figures in due course and hopes to publish further detail in 2022.
