Taxation of Income and Gains from Offshore Funds and Investment Undertakings

On 22nd January 2026, the Revenue Commissioners updated their guidance manuals on Offshore Funds and Investment Undertakings, to reflect Finance Act 2025 amendments. The tax rate for individuals has been reduced from 41% to 38% effective from 1st January 2026. This lower rate applies to income and gains from Irish domiciled investment funds as well as equivalent offshore investment funds located in other EU Member States, EEA States, and OECD countries holding a double taxation agreement with Ireland.
