Letters of tax residence
Revenue updated its procedure for issuing certificates and letters of tax residence for Irish taxpayers in its Tax and Duty Manual Part 35-01-05 (Certification of Residence for Individuals, Partnerships, Companies and Funds).
From 1 January 2018, all letters of residence for individuals, partnerships, companies and funds, issue in PDF format via MyEnquiries. A letter of residence will only issue to an agent where the agent is authorised to act on behalf of that taxpayer. The template letter for companies will also set out a list of all countries with which Ireland has a signed Double Tax Agreement. The above details are covered in Revenue eBrief No. 115/17.
