Leaving Ireland Tax Refund
Reclaim any PAYE and USC overpaid in your final year in Ireland — P50 cessation refund, final Statement of Liability, split-year residence treatment, and any unused credits before you go.
How the process works
Quick assessment
We confirm your departure date, employment history this year, and whether a P50 now or a final Statement of Liability after year-end is the right route.
Document checklist by WhatsApp
You send payslips, employment cessation date, rent receipts, and any other reliefs by photo — no printer needed.
Filing with Revenue
We file the P50 cessation refund or the Statement of Liability, apply the split-year residence treatment for the year of departure, and claim any unused Rent Tax Credit, Flat Rate Expenses, and emergency-tax reconciliation.
Refund and close-out
Any refund due lands in your Irish bank account. We close out your Irish tax record cleanly so you can come back in the future without a mess.
Why it’s important
- Tax credits and rate band are spread across the full year — if you leave mid-year, a significant portion is typically refundable
- Split-year residence treatment prevents income earned after you leave from being caught in the Irish net
- A clean close-out preserves your record at Revenue if you ever return to Ireland
- Designed for international students, graduates, and short-stay workers — Brazilian, Chinese, Mongolian, Malaysian, Chilean, Paraguayan, Costa Rican, Indian, Filipino, and many others
