Limerick City and County Council has announced that all over-the-counter motor taxation services in Limerick will be provided from its offices in Newcastle West and Dooradoyle from mid-July onwards.
The announcement was made following the relocation of the Motor Tax Office at Lissanalta House to the Council Offices, Dooradoyle, earlier this month, and the scheduled ending of over-the-counter motor tax services at Merchants Quay in Limerick from Friday 10th July at 4pm. Support will continue to be provided in Merchant’s Quay from Monday 13th July to ensure that all sectors of the community are catered for.
The announcement follows a survey showing that the majority of vehicle owners across Limerick are now completing their motor tax business online. “The increased use of online services has enabled the Limerick Motor Tax Department to keep waiting times at Newcastle West and Dooradoyle to a minimum during 2015. Waiting times could be further reduced by members of the public choosing to use our online tax service which is operational 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at www.motortax.ie. Customers can, if they so wish, post their applications to the Motor Tax Department, Council Buildings, Dooradoyle, Limerick,” explained Tom Gilligan, Director of Finance, Motor Tax and ICT.
Meanwhile, the Council says that the Motor Tax offices in Newcastle West and Dooradoyle have extended opening hours from 9.15am to 4pm, Monday to Friday (closed Bank Holiday Mondays).
