They can apply to their local authority to do so.
People who are no longer on the road can apply to cancel their motor tax.
Offaly councillor Eddie Fitzpatrick says a number of people have been voicing their concern on the issue.
The majority of people no longer travelling for work and those in the vulnerable category are cocooning at home, so many vehicles are sitting idle.
However, the statutory off the road declaration must be made in advance of the expiry of your current motor tax disc - i.e. if your disc is due to expire in April, the application needs be made by the end of April.
The Fianna Fáil rep says applications can be made to the local authority:
Statement from Offaly County Council:
*** Off the Road Declarations ***
The Statutory off the road declaration must be made in advance i.e. within the month of expiry of the current motor tax disc (or current off the road declaration). It cannot be applied retrospectively. If your tax is due to expire in April, your vehicle needs to be declared off the road by the end of April – this cannot be done in May as a new tax period has commenced.
Customers can declare a vehicle off the road via www.motortax.ie or submitting a completed RF150 form to Offaly County Council’s Motor Tax Office.
Arrears will arise
·if the tax period has expired, the vehicle cannot be declared off the road until arrears are cleared and the vehicle is taxed forward for 3 months.
·if a customer ‘self declares’ without submitting the official information to Offaly Motor Tax office or www.motortax.ie
If in doubt, please phone Offaly Motor Tax Office on 057 9346800 or email motortax@offalycoco.ie and a member of the team will be happy to assist you.
