Get Your Corporation Tax Return Right

Every Irish company must deal with Corporation Tax obligations. This includes filing a CT1 return with Revenue and paying any Corporation Tax due.

However, calculating your company’s taxable profits is not always straightforward. You may need to consider allowable expenses, capital allowances, losses, reliefs and different tax rates.

We prepare your Corporation Tax return and review the figures carefully, so you can meet your obligations and understand your company’s tax position.

UNDERSTANDING CORPORATION TAX

What Is a Corporation Tax Return?

A Corporation Tax Return, known as Form CT1, reports your company’s taxable profits and Corporation Tax liability to Revenue.

For example, your company may have trading income, rental income, investment income, capital allowances or losses that affect the final tax calculation.

The standard Corporation Tax rate is 12.5% for trading income. Non-trading income, such as rental and investment income, is generally taxed at 25%.

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers to common questions from business owners considering this service.

A Corporation Tax Return, or Form CT1, reports a company's taxable profits and Corporation Tax liability to Revenue.

Companies that are liable to Corporation Tax generally need to register for Corporation Tax and file their required returns with Revenue.

For companies filing electronically, the CT1 and any balance of Corporation Tax are generally due by the 23rd day of the ninth month after the end of the accounting period.

The standard Corporation Tax rate is 12.5% for trading income.

A 25% rate generally applies to non-trading income, such as rental and investment income.

The CT1 reports information about your company's income, taxable profits, losses, deductions, allowances and Corporation Tax liability.

You may be able to reduce your taxable profits through allowable expenses, capital allowances, losses and relevant tax reliefs.

However, the rules depend on your company's circumstances and the type of income or expenditure involved.

A trading loss may be available for relief against certain trading income, subject to Revenue's rules.

We can review your company's position and explain how the available loss relief may apply.
