## How €1,500,000 breaks down in Ireland 2026 See the full PAYE, USC, PRSI and pension breakdown in the table above (2026 Revenue rates). Sector insight: at €1.5 million in PAYE income, the 51 percent effective rate is essentially fixed because there is no further banding above the 8 percent USC ceiling. The Standard Fund Threshold for pension assets (currently 2.0 million, increasing to 2.8 million by 2029) becomes the binding limit on pension growth. Income at this level is typically supplemented or replaced by capital gains on share sales, taxed at 33 percent CGT rather than 56.1 percent income tax, which is one reason founder exits matter so much.
