Seamless PAYE Umbrella Company Solutions in Ireland
Contracting in Ireland shouldn't mean drowning in paperwork. TAS Consulting provides streamlined, Revenue-compliant PAYE umbrella solutions for IT specialists, engineers, and temporary professionals looking for hassle-free payroll and maximum net income.
Why Independent Professionals Choose Our PAYE Umbrella Model

Frequently Asked Questions
How does a PAYE umbrella company work in Ireland?
An umbrella company acts as your formal employer while you undertake temporary contracts for various clients or agencies. We invoice your agency, collect the fees, process statutory PAYE, PRSI, and USC deductions through real-time payroll, and pay your net salary directly into your bank account.
What expenses can I claim as an umbrella contractor?
Under Irish Revenue guidelines, you can claim tax relief on legitimate vouched business expenses directly incurred while performing your duties, such as travel and subsistence costs when working at temporary remote locations outside your normal workplace.
How quickly can I get set up with TAS Consulting?
Our onboarding process is lightning fast. Once you provide your signed contract details and personal PPS number, we can typically register you with Irish Revenue and have you ready to submit timesheets within 24 hours.
Do I still need to file an annual tax return (Form 11)?
If your sole income is derived through our PAYE umbrella payroll and your tax credits are correctly applied, you typically do not need to file a Form 11. However, if you have rental income or other outside earnings, a review may be required.
