This rent tax credit calculator uses only publicly published rates, bands, and rules from official Irish Government sources. It is NOT financial, tax, legal, or regulated advice. Results are approximate and for general guidance only. Your individual situation may vary. We accept no responsibility or liability for any reliance placed on these results. Always confirm with the official body (Revenue, RTB, SEAI, etc.) or a qualified professional.
Annual rent: €18,000
Your Rent Tax Credit
€1,000/yr
The full €1,000 ceiling — you pay enough rent to claim all of it.
Claim through Revenue MyAccount: Manage your tax → Tax Credits and Reliefs → Rent Tax Credit. You can claim for the four previous tax years as well as the current one, so an unclaimed credit is not lost. The tenancy must be registered with the RTB where registration is required, and rent paid to a parent does not qualify.
Picked for what you just worked out — not a list of everything we make.
