How this service works
UK-to-Ireland car import landed cost and margin - Use to judge a UK import: converts the GBP price and adds shipping, customs duty, import VAT, VRT, NOx levy and a cost buffer to give the landed cost in EUR. Provide make, model, year and mileage to also get the expected margin against the Irish market median. Duty and VAT default to 0 and must be set by the caller; results are estimates.
Output
Returns a breakdown of the full EUR landed cost for a UK car imported to Ireland, including the converted GBP price, shipping, customs duty, import VAT, VRT band estimate, NOx levy, and a cost buffer. If make, model, year, and mileage are provided, also returns the Irish market median price and the estimated margin the importer could realise.
Example use cases
Private buyer assessing UK import profit
“I found a 2020 BMW 3 Series diesel on a UK site for £22,000 — it's done 60,000 km, CO2 is 115 g/km, NOx is 80 mg/km. With 10% customs duty and 23% VAT, what would it cost me landed in Ireland and is there any margin against the Irish market?”
Car dealer screening bulk import candidates
“We're looking at a 2022 Toyota RAV4 Petrol Hybrid from the UK at £28,000, CO2 of 102 g/km, NOx 40 mg/km, 30,000 km — no customs duty, no import VAT since it's a hybrid. Give me the full landed cost in euros including shipping and VRT so I can decide if it's worth bringing over.”
Electric vehicle import feasibility check
“There's a 2021 Tesla Model 3 long range electric on Auto Trader UK for £31,500 with 25,000 km — CO2 is 0 g/km since it's electric and NOx is 0. Can you calculate what it would cost to land it in Ireland, assuming zero customs duty and zero import VAT?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://irish-auto-arbitrage-production.up.railway.app/api/v1/a2a/import-calculator?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a complete, all-in landed cost estimate for importing a specific UK car to Ireland, including statutory costs like VRT and NOx levy that are unique to the Irish market. Prefer this over the sibling VRT-only endpoint when you need to account for all import costs together. Use this when you also want to see the margin potential against Irish market pricing for a specific make/model/year/mileage combination.
Side effects
- Missing required fields (uk_price_gbp, co2_g_km, fuel_type) returns a validation error
- Invalid fuel_type string outside expected enum values may produce incorrect VRT band
- Customs duty and import VAT default to 0 if not explicitly set, so caller must supply the correct percentages for their situation
- Results are estimates and may differ from actual Revenue/VRT assessments
- Exchange rate defaults to service rate if gbp_eur_rate not provided, which may be stale
- No market margin returned if make, model, year, or mileage_km are omitted
