Directors’ Returns (Packaged Service)
Make filing your director tax returns easier with expert support and clear guidance
What Are Directors’ Returns?
In Ireland, certain company directors (“proprietary directors”) are required to file their own income tax returns (Form 11) each year under self-assessment. This applies even if their main
income is taxed through PAYE or dividends from the company. Directors’ returns declare all sources of personal income (salary, dividends, etc.) plus any reliefs, expenses, credits.
Non-proprietary directors may be exempt from this requirement, depending on shareholding and whether they control more than 15% of the company.
What’s Included in Our Service?
Our packaged service handles all the steps so filing is simple and risk-free:
- Collecting all director income data (salary, dividends, benefits)
- Calculating tax liability, reliefs, and credits
- Preparing and submitting Form 11 via ROS or relevant Revenue system
- Advising on preliminary tax obligations (if applicable)
- Handling follow-ups or queries from Revenue
- Fixed package pricing so you know cost upfront
Why It Matters
- Avoid penalties for late or incorrect returns
- Ensure all income is declared and reliefs are claimed fairly
- Gain peace of mind knowing you’re compliant with Revenue’s requirements
- Save time and reduce risk of errors
Who Needs to File?
- Proprietary Directors, i.e. directors who own or control more than 15% of the company’s share capital.
- Directors who receive salary, dividends, or other non-PAYE income.
- Directors who are resident or non-resident, but with Irish tax obligations, depending on the company’s operations.
