Road tax
Road tax 2027: 1,549 - 1,738 cc
Engines of 1,600, 1,700 cc fall in this band. The amount depends on when the vehicle was first registered.
How much you pay
| First registration | Tax for the year |
|---|---|
| Up to 2000 | €250 |
| From 2001 to 2005 | €265 |
| From 2006 to October 2010, and every motorcycle | €280 |
| Hybrid, from 2006 to October 2010 | €168 |
A car first registered from November 2010 pays by its CO2 emissions and not by its engine size. An electric car pays no road tax. Work out the tax from your registration certificate.
The deadline and the fine
The road tax for 2027 is due by 31 December 2026. If you pay later, the €280 becomes:
- in January: €350
- in February: €420
- from March: €560
If the vehicle will stay off the road, declare it laid up before the year starts. Then you owe no tax for that year.
