Tax week and tax month calendar

Summary

The guide explains the tax periods used by Sage Payroll.

Description

When you set your process date in Sage Payroll (Ireland) it's used to specify the tax period that the employee is being paid for. The tax period determines the tax (PAYE), pay related social insurance (PRSI) and universal social charge (USC) thresholds that are used to calculate your employees pay.

You can check which tax period your process date falls into, by using the following monthly, weekly, fortnightly, four-weekly, bi-monthly and quarterly charts. If you prefer, you can print a copy of our tax calendar to use whenever you like.
