Revenue & Tax Guide
Clear steps for Irish trades to register and stay compliant.
Register as a Sole Trader
You’re an independent contractor. This does not mean setting up a company. You register with Revenue and declare income once per year.
- No CRO filings.
- No monthly VAT unless you pass the threshold.
- Pay tax only on profit.
Form 12 vs Form 11
If you’re PAYE and earn under €5,000 in side income, you usually file Form 12. If you earn more than €5,000 or self-employment is your main income, file Form 11.
This is guidance only. Always confirm with Revenue or an accountant.
What we show in your dashboard
Your earnings dashboard shows gross earnings, platform fees, net paid, and year-to-date totals so tax time is straightforward.
