How this calculator works
Estimate annual PAYE Income Tax liability without presenting it as exact payroll withholding. Inputs are validated and passed to the versioned Ireland engine whenever a field changes.
Formula
Annual PAYE estimate uses supported income bands and credits; it does not reproduce an employer RPN calculation.
Worked example
Use this for annual planning; payroll results can differ by pay date and Revenue Payroll Notification.
Scope and edge cases
The result card states its assumptions and status. Advanced reliefs, classifications or payroll facts outside the supported subset are never silently treated as zero.
Frequently asked questions
Is this paye tax estimate exact?
No. It is a transparent 2026 estimate for the supported scope. Revenue, payroll or local-authority outcomes can include facts not entered here.
Does Taxliva store my figures?
No account is required and the interactive calculation runs in your browser.
