Estimate only, not tax advice. 2027 figures use Budget 2027 (announced 6 October 2026): the standard-rate bands rose €2,500, the personal, PAYE and earned-income credits rose €125, the Home Carer credit rose €100, the Rent Tax Credit rose to €1,150 / €2,300, and the USC 2% ceiling rose from €28,700 to €30,300 (the 3% ceiling stays €70,044). 2026 figures are shown alongside for comparison. Employee take-home assumes a single person with no pension. PRSI uses the flat calendar rate each year shows on a January payslip: 4.35% for 2027 and 4.2% for 2026 (the employee Class A rate rose to 4.35% from 1 October 2026 and is due to rise to 4.5% from 1 October 2027). Class A full rate assumed (the pre-1995 public-service reduced rate is not modelled). Self-employed income pays Class S at the same rate with the €650 minimum. At 66 or over, PRSI does not apply.
