Important notes

  • Dividends from Irish companies are taxed at your marginal income tax rate (20% or 40%), plus USC and PRSI. They are stacked on top of your other income to determine the applicable rate.
  • Dividend Withholding Tax (DWT) of 25% is typically deducted at source by the paying company. This is credited against your total income tax liability - you are not taxed twice.
  • No other income declared. The personal tax credit has been applied against dividend income tax.
