How it's worked out

  • Income tax: 20% on all of it, as it is within the €46,500 standard rate band, less €4,250 of tax credits (the €2,125 personal credit and the €2,125 employee credit).
  • USC (Universal Social Charge): 0.5% on the first €12,012, 2% up to €30,300, 3% up to €70,044 and 8% above (2027).
  • PRSI is 4.35% until 30 September 2027 and 4.5% from 1 October of all earnings (Class A), with a small credit when weekly pay is between €352 and €424.
  • Figures are for a single PAYE employee with no pension contributions. Married couples get a bigger rate band and personal credit: choose that option in the calculator.

What a pay rise is worth

From €45,000, each extra €1,000 of salary adds about €726 to your take-home pay, because 27% of it goes in tax and deductions at this level. On €48,000 you'd take home €3,273.93 a month.
