About us
Hi! We’re Conor and Flor.
We're a couple from Ireland and Argentina. We've worked remotely since 2018. We want to share our experience with other people that are looking into living abroad while working.
Our goal is that you find all this information useful for your next trip!
There is a progressive tax system in Ireland which means that the more income you earn, the more tax you pay.
There are 3 taxes for employees in Ireland
PAYE (Pay as you earn)
PRSI (Pay Related Social Insurance)
USC ( Universal Social Charge)
PAYE is the main tax in Ireland and you pay 20% up to €35,000 and 40% of everything earned above this level. This means that if you earn an average salary or below, you pay 20% tax on that and if you have a higher salary then you pay 20% tax before €35,000 and then 40% above that.
PRSI is 4% or lower in most cases and also depends on the job you do.
USC is usually between 2-8% of your income.
All of these calculations are done for you and the only thing you need to do is check that your tax was calculated correctly as you could be due a tax refund. You can do this and learn much more on revenue.ie by setting up an account and checking it the year after you worked in Ireland.
