Pensions from DAVY SELECT

Realise your retirement ambition

Investing in a pension and contributing to it regularly is one of the most tax-efficient ways to build up a nest egg for your retirement.

The hard copy pay and file deadline to make contributions against 2023 earnings is approaching on 31st October 2024, so now may be a good time to make a contribution and claim up to 40% tax back. If you pay and file your returns online through Revenue Online Service (ROS) the deadline is 14th November 2024. The amount of tax relief you can get on your contributions depends on your age:

Age in Tax Year Maximum Contribution as a % of Earnings/Relevant Earnings1
Under 30 15%
30-39 20%
40-49 25%
50-54 30%
55-59 35%
Over 60 40%

Contributions must be paid to your pension fund and returns must be filed with Revenue on or before the deadline above. Other criteria for eligibility also apply.


1 Earnings/ Relevant Earnings: Earnings from a self-employed trade or profession assessable under Schedule D or remuneration from an office or employment assessable under Schedule E, subject to a cap of €115,000 for 2021 which may increase at a rate determined by the Minister for Finance.  There are complex rules defining earnings and relevant earnings for pension relief purposes.

In some situations tax relief on contributions in excess of the limits can be carried forward and relief is granted in future years.
