Updates to direct debit guidelines
The Tax and Duty Manual VAT and Employer Income Tax PRSI USC LPT Direct Debit Guidelines has been updated.
The updated manual now reflects:
- that the UK is now categorised as a non-EU country for SEPA purposes (Paragraph 4)
- that local property tax (LPT) can be paid by direct debit (Paragraph 5)
- the treatment of fixed direct debit overpayments where they arise (Paragraph 7).
Appendices 1 and 5 have also been updated to include a link to the terms and conditions of the variable direct debit scheme and to include screenshots for creating a variable direct debit respectively.
See Revenue eBrief No.096/21 for further details.
