At the end of last year, the Department of Finance and Revenue jointly launched a public consultation inviting stakeholder feedback on a proposed electronic withholding tax (eWHT) system in Ireland, which aims to introduce real-time taxation for self-employed taxpayers subject to withholding tax (WHT). The deadline to respond is fast approaching and submissions must be made by 5.00pm on Friday, 30 January 2026.
The consultation also seeks views on modernising Professional Services Withholding Tax (PSWT), Relevant Contracts Tax (RCT), and extending WHT to the platform economy.
Further details regarding the consultation are included in our earlier newsletter item.
