Before tax. They don't know if you're married or not, for example.

Hi,
Salaries advertised are before tax .

When they post salary 30-40k per annum , i think this means that the salary will between this range depending on experience, or else you start on 30k and the range of increases will take you up to 40k after so many years working with the company
i may be wrong but think thats it

hope it helps you

Thanks for the help. I've never looked for a job in Ireland before, never prepared a CV for the Irish market (yet to do that!), but was thinking of moving back home after 8 years in Paris and happened today to find the *ideal* job so thought i'd give it a shot.

Is there somewhere, a site or something, where I could work out what tax I'd pay, once I'd submitted all the info needed?

www.revenue.ie should have all the info you need, though deciphering it can be tough. There's a section there about PAYE benefits.
http://www.revenue.ie/leaflets/it1.htm

Basically what you do is:
Work out how much tax you have to pay. If you're single without children, for example, You pay 20% on the first €32,000 and 42% on the remainder.
So work out what that amount is.

Then you work out how much PRSI you pay. PRSI is 6% of your gross salary.

Then you work out your tax credits. These vary from person-to-person depending on circumstances. The total tax you pay is the gross tax + PRSI (as calculated above) - Tax Credits.

Thanks for all the help.

It seems that I'll take home about €3728 per month (married) in Ireland.

It isn't going to be easy to work out in which country I'll be better off though. I make €4000 gross in France. I pay 20% in PRSI an then 20% tax on what's left or so. In the end I'm looking at €2500 per month.

There's a difference of €1500 but that 20% PRSI includes all medical bills ever, for me and all of my family, and a pension at 60 years of age which is an average of 80% of my wages for the best 5 years of my life. A married man, living in PAris, with 3 kids pays about 7% income tax rather than 20% with no kids.

Added to the fact that I can live 1 hour from Paris in a 4-bedroomed house on .5 acres for about €180,000 means that the attractive figure of €70,000 may not be all that great in the end...?
