An electronic tax clearance certificate (eTC) typically remains valid for four years, provided the taxpayer continues to meet all its tax compliance obligations. Once the four‑year period ends, a new application must be submitted. Grants and certain relief schemes require an annual renewal application.
Revenue has introduced a new agent notification feature that will give agents a list of clients whose electronic Tax Clearance certificates (eTCs) are due to expire within the next 30 days.
Approximately 30 days in advance of the expiry date of an eTC, a reminder will issue to ROS and myAccount customers and at the same time, a notification will issue to the agent’s ROS inbox providing a list of linked clients who have been issued with an eTC reminder. The agents listing will provide the client’s name, registration number and eTC expiry date.
