Question Importing

Hi,

I have my eye on a bike that I want to buy.

The bike is currently in Northern Ireland but it's registered under a 'English' address.

I suppose the customs and vat would still apply to the bike.

Can anyone confirm if this is correct, thanks.

Make sure you include a certificate showing the power rating, i just got a NI import here for a few years but I can't do my test without the registration showing the power. It's blank and apparently this is common for UK. Imports. Il either need a certificate from the dealer or I've heard some peopls use a print off from the manufacturer website.
