Where do I find out what my tax type is?

    I'm trying to do my self-employed tax return for 2010 online. I have an RAN number which was posted out to me and I have to set up a digital certificate before I can start entering details. When I try to set up my digital certificate it keeps asking for a Tax Type/Approval No. and Registration No./ID No. I have no idea what these are or where I find them. Can anybody advise where I can find out this information? I've trawled the Revenue website but can't find any reference to them.

    as far as I remember there are a few letters which arrive containing codes/passwords etc to get set up - this is a security thing, but there is also a help number on revenue website i think (speaking just from memory)

    Ok thanks. I can ring the Revenue tomorrow. Just wanted to get on with since I'd steeled myself to actually make a start on it! It's possible I did get another letter with other codes and references on it. Will just have to dig a little deeper in the black hole that is my file box.

    When you applied for the RAN the two boxes you would have completed were those two you listed above... (https://www.ros.ie/acl/apply_ran/step1?language=en&country=IE)

    I would imagine the tax type will be income tax (or maybe VAT if you're VAT reg'd) and the registration no will be your PPS no (or VAT reg no if VAT reg'd, but that'd most likely be your PPS no anyway).

    Try that and see how you get on.

    Yep, done that and that's done the trick. Thanks. My password will be posted out to me so I can get onto the next stage. Thanks for all advice.
