The Jobs and Pensions service allows you to register your new job or private pension with Revenue.
When you register your job or pension, Revenue will send a Tax Credit Certificate (TCC) to you. A Revenue Payroll Notification (RPN) will also be available to your new employer or pension provider. This will ensure that the correct amount of tax is deducted from your job or private pension.
Who is the service for?
You must use the Jobs and Pensions service to register your first job in Ireland.
You can also use the Jobs and Pensions service to:
- register a second or subsequent job or pension.
- cease a job.
- notify us if you are receiving payments from a private pension (not a Department of Social Protection (DSP) pension)
