I'm on my own this week to provide some guidance around retiring to Ireland as an expat and delve into the considerations for taxation, whether you're an Irish native returning home or someone who's chosen Ireland as their new home. While paying taxes is the last thing you want to think about before retirement, some of the decisions you make can have a significant impact on your lifestyle and the way you navigate the Irish tax system.

We'll explore some example scenarios, like moving from the US to Ireland, to illustrate how your income, including pensions and rental income, will be taxed. Plus, I'll share practical tips on handling what I call "life admin" for taxes, such as registering for tax, understanding your entitlements, and the importance of planning for the future with an Irish will.

As always, what I talk about in these episodes is for your information and not to be taken as direct tax advice for your situation - please seek a tax professional to give you advice, or get in touch with us at ExpatTaxes.ie to help you!
