My Department through the National Vehicle and Driver File (NVDF) maintains a record of the ‘registered owners’ of motor vehicles. Where a vehicle is being exported out of the State and being registered in another country, the owner is required to notify the Department of same and the vehicle is marked as exported on the NVDF. The records on the NVDF show that no such notification was received by the Department.

Notwithstanding the above, my officials have engaged with the individual concerned as regards supporting documentation of the registration of the vehicle in the other State. I understand that the matter has been addressed to the vehicle owners satisfaction
