- Tax revenues to end-September amounted to €78.9 billion, up by 10.7 per cent on last year.
- Of this:
- Income tax receipts amounted to €27.8 billion, up by €2.0 billion (7.8 per cent);
- Corporation tax receipts of €22.7 billion were €4.4 billion (24.2 per cent) higher, driven by a timing factor
- VAT receipts of €20.5 billion were up by €1.7 billion (8.9 per cent).
- Total gross voted expenditure to end-September amounted to €83.4 billion, €5.9 billion (7.7 per cent) ahead of the same period last year.
- An Exchequer surplus of €2.4 billion was recorded to end-September.
Total tax receipts amounted to €78.9 billion to end-September, a €7.6 billion (10.7 per cent) increase relative to the same period last year.
Income tax receipts in September of €2.8 billion were ahead of last year by €0.2 billion (9.0 per cent). Cumulative income tax receipts of €20.5 billion were €1.7 billion (7.8 per cent) higher than last year, and slightly ahead of expectations.
September is a VAT due month with receipts of €4.1 billion ahead of the same month last year by €0.6 billion. On a cumulative basis, VAT receipts of €20.5 billion were ahead of last year by €1.7 billion (8.9 per cent). This revenue stream is ahead of profile.
Some €4.9 billion was collected in corporation tax during September, up by €3.1 billion on the same month last year. This increase reflects a timing factor which temporarily boosted receipts this month, but will result in a corresponding decrease in some of the remaining months. On a cumulative basis, corporation tax receipts of €22.7 billion are up by €4.4 billion (24.2 per cent) on last year and ahead of expectations.
Total gross voted expenditure amounted to €83.4 billion, €5.9 billion (7.7 per cent) ahead of 2025.
Overall, an Exchequer surplus of €2.4 billion was recorded to end-September, down by €4.2 billion on last year.
Tánaiste and Minister for Finance, Simon Harris T.D. said:
“Today we are publishing the White Paper, a constitutional requirement that sets out my Department’s fiscal projections in the absence of a Budget. We are also publishing the Exchequer returns for the third quarter.
While there are significant distortions caused by the timing of corporation tax payments, today’s receipts continue the positive trend we have seen over the course of the year. Robust revenue growth reflects an economy that has been running at full employment for the longest stretch in the history of the State.
“Both publications tell the same story: we have a resilient economy and strong public finances. This gives us the capacity to deliver a Budget on Tuesday that will reward work and effort, continue to invest in our public services and infrastructure, and save for the future.”
The Minister for Public Expenditure, Public Service Reform and Digitalisation, Jack Chambers T.D. said:
“Today we are publishing the Exchequer returns for the end of the third quarter, alongside the White Paper setting out the pre-Budget position for this year and next. The figures show gross voted expenditure of €83.4 billion to the end of September, an increase of 7.7 per cent on the same period last year. This investment has expanded access to public services and social supports, increased capacity across the public sector and is supporting the acceleration of infrastructure delivery.
Taken together, these publications underline both the scale of the Government’s investment and the importance of managing expenditure carefully. Budget 2027 will continue investment in critical infrastructure and public services, while placing an enhanced focus and emphasis on reform, efficiency and driving better value for money so that public spending delivers real and tangible improvements in people’s daily lives.”
