    Hello all!

    I am new to boards.ie and I am hoping that someone can help me.I am a recent graduate of languages from UCC.I am hoping to set up my own business (putting it on trial this summer)which involves selling(language software).

    The thing about it is I will be basing my myself in Dublin and spending half the time there and the other half of the time will have to work and live in other counties.For example,in a typical month I will have to spend 2 weeks in Dublin and the other two weeks in another county.:eek:

    Therefore I can rent a place in Dublin but stay in a B and B the other half of the time.This will work out quite expensive (probably 300 per month for a B and B if its 30 euro per night for 10 nights)as I will have to pay for 2 places but theres no other way it can be done -I will have to travel around.:mad:

    What I am asking is what will I be taxed-will there be any exemptions from the government as I will have to live in 2 different places.?????????:confused:

    Any help would be really welcome!

    Putting it on trial this summer.If it doesnt work out Im emigrating to France to teach English!!;)

    Hi

    You will be deemed resident in ireland for tax purposes if you spend 183 days or more in Ireland over the tax year or 280 days over two years.

    If you are irish resident you will be liable to tax on all your Irish income. if you are domiciled in ireland (ie born here) then you will also be laible to tax earned in other countries. If you are not born in ireland then you are only liable to tax earned outside ireland if you remitt it to ireland.

    Based on tax treaties you may be entitle to a credit for any foreign tax which is paid foreign income which then becomes subject to Irish tax.

    This is a complex area and you need to consult a tax advisor regarding this.


    Kind Regards
