What you will type in
The manual entry form on this page asks for the figures that appear on a standard Revenue Payroll Submission line. Have your most recent payslip in front of you and copy across the values exactly as printed. The form covers:
- Gross pay for the pay period, before any deductions.
- Net pay, the figure that lands in your bank account.
- PAYE deducted in this period.
- USC deducted in this period.
- PRSI employee deduction (Class A1 is 4.1% in 2026, rising to 4.2% from 1 October 2026).
- Pension contribution if any, including AVCs and PRSAs.
- Tax credit applied in the period and your SRCOP (Standard Rate Cut Off Point).
- Pay frequency so we can annualise correctly.
Worked example
A single employee earning a gross monthly salary of 4,000 euro should see roughly:
- PAYE: gross above the SRCOP (44,000 euro single threshold for 2026) is taxed at 40%, the rest at 20%, less your Personal Tax Credit of 2,000 euro and PAYE Credit of 2,000 euro spread across 12 months.
- USC: 0.5% on the first 12,012 euro, 2% on the next band, 4% on the middle band, and 8% above 70,044 euro.
- PRSI: 4.1% Class A1 employee rate on the full gross figure for January through September, 4.2% from October onward.
Our engine recomputes each line and flags any value that diverges by more than 1 euro from the expected figure.
The form
The interactive entry form renders below this section. It validates as you type, formats euro amounts, and shows a side panel with the recomputed figures the moment all required fields are filled.
Why use manual entry instead of a photo?
Some payslips arrive as locked PDFs, some are emailed in plain text, and some workers prefer not to share an image at all. Manual entry gives the same verification depth without ever passing image data through our system. The form posts only the numbers you type, processes them in memory, and discards them once the result is shown.
Privacy notes
No name, no PPS number, and no employer name is required for the calculation. If you choose to add a free email address for your result history, that is the only personal data we store, and you can delete it at any time. See our trust page for the full data flow.
Next steps
- If your figures match, save the result and move on.
- If they do not match, read our P21 Statement of Liability guide and our tax refund guide to understand what to do next.
