When you need to deal with CGT

CGT applies when you sell, swap or give away an asset for more than it cost. These are the cases we see most.

  • You sold shares, ETFs held outside an Irish fund wrapper, or vested RSUs
  • You sold, swapped or spent crypto
  • You sold a property that was not your main home
  • You made losses you want to carry forward against future gains
HOW IT WORKS

Three steps, all online

  1. STEP 1

    Send us the disposals

    Broker or exchange statements are enough to start: what you sold, when, and what it cost.

  2. STEP 2

    We calculate the gain

    We match costs to sales, apply the right rate by date, the annual exemption and any losses, and show you the figures.

  3. STEP 3

    Pay and file on time

    We tell you exactly what to pay by each deadline and file the return through your Revenue account.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

Start with the basics

  • Your PPS number and access to Revenue myAccount or ROS
  • Broker or exchange statements showing each sale and its date
  • What you paid for each asset, including fees
  • Any losses from earlier years you have not used
  • For property: purchase and sale costs, and any periods you lived there
