Why Expats Need Specialist Tax Advice
Ireland's tax system treats expats differently based on residency, domicile, and ordinary residence. Getting it wrong can mean paying too much tax - or facing penalties for non-compliance.
- Residency rules are complex - The 183-day and 280-day tests interact with domicile and ordinary residence
- Tax treaties vary by country - Different rules apply depending on where your income originates
- Valuable reliefs are available - SARP, remittance basis, and split-year treatment can save thousands
- Penalties are significant - Undeclared foreign income can result in substantial fines and interest
We Help Expats Who Are:
- Moving to Ireland for work or business
- Returning to Ireland after years abroad
- Working remotely for a foreign employer
- Receiving foreign pensions or investments
- Owning rental property overseas
- Leaving Ireland permanently
- Digital nomads with Irish connections
- Cross-border workers (UK/Northern Ireland)

Understanding Irish Tax Residency
Your tax obligations depend on three key concepts
Tax Resident
You're tax resident if you spend 183+ days in Ireland in a year, or 280+ days over two consecutive years.
Effect: Liable to Irish tax on worldwide income
Ordinarily Resident
You become ordinarily resident after being tax resident for 3 consecutive years. It takes 3 years of non-residence to lose this status.
Effect: Irish tax obligations continue even after leaving
Domiciled
Your domicile is where you consider your permanent home. It's usually where you were born but can change if you intend to live permanently elsewhere.
Effect: Non-domiciled residents can use the remittance basis
