A rise is taxed at your marginal rate, so you keep less than the headline amount. This shows exactly how much more lands in your pay, using 2026 rates.

Take-home: €39,649 → €40,968 a year
Why you keep less than the rise
The extra pay is taxed at your top rate of income tax (20% or 40%) plus USC (up to 8%) and PRSI. Above €44,000 a single person keeps about half of each extra euro.
