VAT reduction could be key to tourism industry
Overseas visitors and revenue in Republic of Ireland
Visitors (000s)
10000
■
VAT in Northern Ireland is
currently set at 20% relatively high we
compared to a European
average of 10.8% and the
Republic of Ireland at 9%.
Since the Republic of
Ireland reduced their VAT
rate on the hotel industry
to 9% in 2011, they have
seen a surge in visitor
numbers and revenue,
albeit with a lag period of
around 1 year.
■
The reduction in VAT is
forecast to lead to record
revenue and visitor
numbers in 2015 in the
Republic of Ireland – A
clear indication of the
power of tax cuts in the
tourism industry

Key challenges to NI tourism
Improving access – particularly air to gain market share from
long haul markets where visitors typically stay for longer and
spend more
Policy support to the tourism industry via tax cuts (VAT &
APD)
Building on recent successes and securing new events that
attract international visitors (e.g. World Police and Fire
Games, Derry-Londonderry City of Culture, Giro D’Italia,
Ryder Cup)
External challenges will prevail in the form of weaker euro
