How Irish payroll deductions work

Your gross salary in Ireland is reduced by three main deductions before you receive your net (take-home) pay:

  • Income Tax (PAYE) — 20% on income up to the standard rate cut-off (€44,000 for a single person in 2025), 40% above it. Tax credits (€2,000 personal + €2,000 employee for most PAYE workers) reduce your tax bill directly.
  • USC (Universal Social Charge) — a separate charge on gross income, with rates from 0.5% to 8% depending on income bands.
  • PRSI (Pay Related Social Insurance) — 4.1% for most employees (Class A), which builds entitlement to social welfare benefits and the State Pension.
