Domicile
Summary
In this article we explain the concept of domicile as it relates to Irish tax.
Your domicile is the country in which you live with the intention of staying there permanently. It can be different to your residence or nationality.
In general, you will be considered Irish domiciled if either you and/or your parents were born in Ireland.
Similarly, you will not be considered Irish domiciled if neither you nor your parents were born in the country.
Your domicile can be changed to a 'domicile of choice', although this is highly unusual and would only be desirable in very specific circumstances.
There are tax benefits for Irish tax residents who are considered non-Irish domiciled. Learn about these benefits here.
