VRT appeals

VRT appeals process

You should submit your appeal and supporting documentation to the Appeals Team via MyEnquiries, where possible. Make your appeal in writing, quoting your Personal Public Service Number (PPSN) or Revenue Number, outlining the facts in question.

Your appeal will be acknowledged by an Appeals Officer. This officer is nominated by Revenue for that purpose and has had no earlier involvement in the case.

For all appeals relating to: 

  • the amount of Vehicle Registration Tax charged by Revenue
  • the registration of a vehicle
  • the amendment of an entry in the register (including the classification recorded for a vehicle)
  • or
  • the determination of an Open Market Selling Price (OMSP) by Revenue which supersedes the OMSP determined by a motor distributor.

The location in MyEnquiries to submit your appeal and supporting documentation is:

  • Under the ‘Enquiry relates to’ option customer should select
    'Vehicles Registration Tax (VRT)'.
  • Under the ‘More specifically’ option the customer should select
    'VRT Appeals'.

 Please note that appeals relating to :
