Hybrid and fully remote work models are firmly established in the Irish economy. To offset the costs of working from home (WFH), Revenue allows employees to claim tax relief on certain household expenses.
You can claim tax relief on 30% of your broadband, heating, and electricity bills, apportioned for the days you actually worked from home.
Alternatively, your employer can pay you an allowance of up to €3.20 per day completely tax-free. If your employer pays this, you cannot claim the remote working relief on your tax return for those same days.
To calculate your claim, you must know the exact number of days you worked from home during the year. You multiply your total utility bills by 30%, and then multiply that figure by the fraction of days worked from home (e.g., 150 days / 365 days). Upload your bills via the Revenue Receipts Tracker app to make the end-of-year claim seamless.
