P50 and 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

1

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.

2

Document checklist by WhatsApp

You send payslips, employment cessation date, rent receipts, and any other reliefs by photo. No printer needed.

3

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.

4

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
