A personal tax credit directly reduces the income tax you owe. It’s based on your personal status.
2025 personal tax credit amounts:
- Single: €2,000
- Married or civil partners (joint assessment): €4,000
- Single person child carer: €1,900
- Blind person: €1,950
- Incapacitated child: €3,800
Revenue applies this automatically if they know your status but let them know if your circumstances change.
