Chern & Co prepares and files your Form 11 tax return with Revenue on ROS for sole traders, self-employed people and proprietary company directors in Ireland. We calculate your trading income, expenses, tax credits and preliminary tax, send the completed return to you for approval, then file it before the deadline so you avoid surcharges and interest.
You see the completed return before it is filed and approve it first.
Late filing brings a surcharge of 5% of the tax due (up to EUR 12,695) if the return is less than two months late, and 10% (up to EUR 63,485) after that, plus interest on late payment. We plan your return so it is filed on time.
Sole traders, freelancers and contractors, directors of Irish limited companies who own more than 15% of the shares, and people with rental or other non-PAYE income who need a Form 11 filed correctly and on time.
Form 11 is the Revenue income tax return for self-assessed taxpayers, called chargeable persons. Sole traders, proprietary directors and people with significant non-PAYE income file it on ROS each year.
The 2025 Form 11 is due by 31 October 2026. If you both pay and file on ROS, the deadline is extended to 18 November 2026.
Proprietary directors, who own or control more than 15% of the company’s ordinary share capital, must file a Form 11 even if all their income is taxed through payroll.
Preliminary tax is an advance payment of income tax for the current year, paid with your Form 11 by the same deadline. We calculate it so you pay the right amount and avoid interest.
