EU Deposit Interest - Revenue Reporting

Ok, looks like you have time to waste and just looking for an argument. You're wrong and I'll leave it at that.
 
how is the dirt tax collected if you are paye?
Many/most deposit accounts deduct DIRT at source.
Where that's not the case the account holder needs to pay it.
The PAYE status of the account holder is irrelevant to the tax liability.

Ae @ClubMan says, for almost all deposit interest paid by Irish Banks etc DIRT will be deducted at source so you won't have to do anything.

For overseas deposit interest, the onus is on you to declare the interest and pay the DIRT. You do this by completing either Revenue Form 12 or Form 11 after the year end, entering details of the deposit interest received (there are separate entries for EU deposit interest and for all other foreign deposit interest). After you submit this you will receive a balancing statement showing how much you owe. The rate will be either 33% or 40%, and in some instances you will also be liable for PRSI @ 4.x%.
 
Also be prepared to provide evidence of the foreign interest you earned (and any tax deductions that a bank might have made).

Account statements or end of year tax declaration will do but revenue has started asking questions and asking for evidence.
 
Received our 2024 balancing statement, deposit interest treated as income!

Had submitted it under the following category, which I understood was correct?

How much hassle is this going to be to rectify?
 
I have registered on ROS to pay Dirt Tax. To get to the next step I need to select one of the Registration Options Under Other Services -> Manage Tax transactions. The Registration options are for example CAT, CGT, VAT, Income Tax etc.. but there is no option for Dirt Tax.
Anybody know if it is under Income Tax I need to register for to pay Dirt tax ? I have asked through my enquiries but somebody here might comeback sooner.
 
Foreign Bank Accounts (S.895)
Give the following details for each foreign bank account opened in 2024 of which you or your spouse/civil partner were the beneficial owner of the deposits held

On the above section on Form 11 do we have to list all the Foreign bank accounts that we opened in 2024? Not a problem if we do but should I list the ones opened in 2023 and matured in 2024 as that is where most of my interest comes from? It would make more sense if revenue asked the question: List the bank accounts that you earned interest on in 2024.

You should have put in the details of foreign accounts you opened in 2023 in your 2023 Form 11.
If you have opened any in 2024, declare them in the 2024 Form 11, yes.

That might make more sense to you but that's not what they want to know - what they want to know is exactly what they asked for, the details of any new foreign bank accounts that you opened in the year.

You should be declaring the interest earned, elsewhere on the form, albeit at an aggregate level.
