An estimate based on 2026 Irish rates and the details you've entered — not a payslip or tax advice. Your actual pay depends on the tax credits and cut-off point Revenue has assigned you, along with anything your employer deducts that isn't modelled here. Check your Tax Credit Certificate in Revenue myAccount for the figures being applied to you.
