What Is a Revenue Audit?
A Revenue Audit is when the Irish Revenue Commissioners review your tax affairs to ensure compliance. It typically involves examining your accounts, tax returns, and records to check if you’ve declared all income and paid the correct amount of tax.
Audits can cover Income Tax, Corporation Tax, VAT, PAYE, RCT, and more.
