How Irish Income Tax Works — PAYE, USC & PRSI

Ireland has three separate taxes on income: Income Tax (20%/40%), USC (Universal Social Charge, 0.5%–8%), and PRSI (Pay Related Social Insurance, 4.1%). Budget 2024 raised the standard rate band to €42,000 for single earners — income above this is taxed at 40%. Two tax credits (€3,750 total) reduce the final bill.
