Driving a Campervan around Dublin
- M50 toll (eFlow) varies by vehicle category and whether you have an account; for cars it's €2.60 with an electronic tag and €3.20 with a video account (€3.80 unregistered). You must pay online by 20:00 the next day or register an eFlow tag in advance.
- Dublin Port Tunnel charges peak rates of €14 southbound (06:00-10:00) and €12 northbound (16:00-19:00). Off-peak rates are €3.50 and the height limit is 4.65 m.
- Dublin has no Low Emission Zone restrictions for campervans.
- Sleeping in a vehicle is not allowed within Dublin City Council boundaries. You must use official camping sites or park at suburban locations like Red Cow Luas station, which has no height barrier and tram connections to the city centre in 20 minutes.
- Bus lanes on College Green and narrow streets in Temple Bar block larger vehicles. Plan your routes to avoid these areas.
- The R105 coastal drive to Howth is scenic but becomes very slow on sunny weekends due to beach traffic.
- Wild camping requires landowner permission. Fines apply for overnight parking on beaches without permission.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is wild camping in a campervan allowed in Ireland?
Much of the land in Ireland is private property and wild/free camping is illegal without prior approval from the landowner. Some national parks make provision for free camping; however, always follow leave-no-trace practices. Check at a tourist information centre or online to find the regulations for a specific area you would like to visit.
There are over 100 campsites in Ireland and these are relatively cheap, starting at around €15 per night.
How much does it cost to stay at a campsite in Ireland?
There are over 100 campsites in Ireland, and most are relatively cheap. Staying at a campsite or caravan park starts at around €15 per night.
What kind of licence do you need to hire a campervan in Ireland?
To hire a campervan in the Republic of Ireland, you need to hold a valid manual driving licence that you’ve had for a minimum of 2 years. This will allow you to drive a European category B vehicle up to a maximum weight of 3,500kg. If your licence was issued outside of the UK, EEA, or Switzerland, you must obtain an international driving licence.
Can I travel to Northern Ireland or drop off my motorhome in Belfast?
Yes, while Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom, many campervan hire companies have depots in both the UK and Ireland.
One-way trips are a popular way to travel and a great way to see more on your motorhome getaway.
Note that additional one-way fees may apply. The comparison tool will automatically factor this into your total price.
