Common Questions (FAQs)
What expenses can I claim as a taxi driver in Ireland?
Taxi drivers can claim a range of business-related expenses including fuel, motor insurance, vehicle maintenance and repairs, NCT fees, SPSV licensing fees, mobile phone bills used for bookings, and capital allowances on vehicle depreciation.
When is the deadline to file my Form 11 tax return?
For self-assessed taxpayers filing online through Revenue Online Service (ROS), the deadline is typically in mid-November of the year following the tax year (e.g., November 2026 for the 2025 tax year).

VAT registration is mandatory if your taxable turnover exceeds the statutory threshold set by Irish Revenue. Many taxi drivers operate below this threshold, but our accountants review your exact earnings to determine if registration is required.
