It is assumed that the Deputy is referring to the number of used vehicle imports.
I am advised by Revenue that the total number of used vehicles imported into the State in 2016 and 2017 is provided in the following table. The table also includes the amounts of Vehicle Registration Tax (VRT) collected by Revenue in respect of those vehicles for the years in question (all imported vehicles are liable to VRT).
Year | Number of Imported Vehicles | VRT Collected (€ Millions) |
---|---|---|
2016 | 93,073 | 189.0 |
2017 | 119,834 | 260.5 |
