Maximizing your Investment – Irish DWT relief and recovery for nonresident investors
About this session
Are you a nonresident of Ireland but investing in Irish securities, or part of an employee share plan that pay Irish dividends? Or perhaps you are overseeing the employee share plan for a company paying Irish dividends to its employees.
Irish dividend payments are generally subject to a 25% Dividend Withholding Tax (DWT), which can significantly reduce the income received by nonresident investors. Eligible investors, however, may be able to obtain upfront relief of this tax or reclaim this tax back under an applicable tax treaty.
