I am re-locating to Dubai in 3 weeks and have a query!

I plan to send some of my earnings home from Dubai to make up a shortfall on my mortgage (renting my apartment) & also to save.

I plan on wiring the money into my Irish bank account here but am wondering will I get taxed on it? And if yes how much? Is there a threshold or certain amount I can transfer before it is taxed?

Dubai is tax free, not sure if that makes any difference though.

Any info is greatly appreciated.
 
As clubman pointed out it depends on your tax residence and domicile.

You can take it for the next three years that you will be subject to tax on a remittance basis, assuming you do not return to Ireland within that time frame.
