How to fill in and sign Form TR1 (Ireland)
Check TR1 is the right form
Companies use Form TR2. PAYE employees starting their first job use Jobs and Pensions in myAccount, and individuals who need Income Tax only use eRegistration.
Part A: who is registering
Individuals complete A1 and partnerships, trusts and unincorporated bodies complete A2. Everyone completes A3 with business, adviser and premises details.
Choose the taxes (Parts B to F)
Complete Part B for Income Tax, C for VAT, D to register as an employer for PAYE/PRSI, E for Relevant Contracts Tax and F for Capital Gains Tax, as needed.
Sign the declaration
Give your name, signature, capacity (for example individual, precedent partner or trustee), date and phone number. Revenue cannot register any tax without it.
Send it to the right Registration Unit
Most customers send it to Business Registrations, Office of the Revenue Commissioners, P.O. Box 1, Wexford, or by email to businesstaxesregistrations@revenue.ie. The form lists other units for large corporate and financial services cases.
What you need before you start
- Your PPS number or tax reference.
- Business name, address, start date and description of activity.
- Expected turnover, if registering for VAT.
- Details of employees, if registering as an employer.
- Your adviser's details, if you have one.
eRegistration or TR1?
Revenue says individuals who need only Income Tax registration should use the eRegistration service through Manage My Record in myAccount. Agents must apply through ROS. Use the TR1 if you are not eligible for eRegistration or need other taxes.
Common mistakes
- Using TR1 for a company. Companies use TR2.
- Not signing the declaration.
- Ticking taxes you do not need, or missing VAT or employer registration that you do need.
