Key Post: CGT on Shares

[Ducky]

I've recently sold shares in work. Is there a threshold that I can sell before having to pay Capital Gains Tax on them?

Re: CGT on Shares

You have an individual annual CGT allowance of €1,270. There are some other allowances (e.g. acquisition/disposal costs, inflation indexation of the acquisition price, previously inclurred capital losses etc.) too. Above that the gain is subject to 20% CGT. See this calculator, [broken link removed] and [broken link removed] for more info.
