Our Mission: Making Irish Tax Filing Simpler

We believe that you shouldn’t need to be a tax pro to file your own Form 11. We hear from customers how previous to using FastTax.ie they dreaded completing their annual tax return – “it was like ROS was designed to make me feel stupid”. We want to give our customers back control of their taxes. We exist to help individuals file their Form 11 accurately, affordably, and with as little stress as possible. We’ve honed our digital service to suit Irish customers needs based on our decades of Irish tax experience.
