About Ireland Salary

Ireland Salary was born from a simple frustration: understanding how much you'll actually take home from your salary in Ireland shouldn't be complicated. Yet, for thousands of Irish workers, calculating PAYE, USC, and PRSI felt like solving a complex puzzle.

We saw people making major life decisions - accepting job offers, planning mortgages, budgeting for families - without truly understanding their net income. We saw workers overpaying tax because they didn't know what credits they were entitled to. We saw confusion about Ireland's progressive tax system leading to poor financial planning.

So we built a solution. A free, easy-to-use calculator that breaks down exactly where your money goes. No complicated tax jargon. No hidden fees. Just honest, accurate calculations based on current Irish tax law.

What started as a simple salary calculator has grown into a comprehensive financial planning resource. Today, we help over 50,000 Irish workers every month understand their taxes, plan mortgages, and make informed financial decisions.

Accuracy isn't just important to us - it's everything. When you're making financial decisions based on our calculations, we know you need numbers you can trust.

Every calculator is built directly from official Revenue Commissioners documentation. We cross-reference multiple sources, test with real-world scenarios, and update immediately when tax laws change.

Our calculations include all the nuances of Irish tax law: progressive tax bands, multiple USC rates, PRSI contributions, standard tax credits, and special reliefs. We don't cut corners or provide "estimates" - we provide exact calculations.

However, tax situations can be complex. While our calculators cover the vast majority of scenarios, we always recommend consulting with a qualified tax advisor for personalized advice, especially if you have rental income, foreign income, or other complex tax situations.
