Taxation of Vintage & Veteran Vehicle

• A vehicle is classed as a vintage/veteran once its 30 years old from date of manufacture and a concessionary rate of motor tax applies
• If the vehicle owner does not have the appropriate registration documents clearly showing the date of manufacture and the Motor Tax office is unable to trace any details of same from the National Vehicle Computer system or from older records retained in our Louth County Archives, then the vehicle owner must get the manufacturer to confirm same in writing on headed paper.
• If this is not possible the vehicle will have to be re-registered with the Revenue Commissioners & get a new registration number.
• Tax renewal form must be fully completed & signed ensuring insurance details are entered.
• Appropriate fee
• No NCT/CRW required for Vintage Vehicles yet.
