Ireland Self-Assessment Income Tax Return (Form 11S, 2025 tax year)
File an Irish self-assessed individual's Income Tax Return and Self-Assessment using Revenue's Form 11S, the shorter return Revenue issues in place of the full Form 11 to a chargeable person with straightforward tax affairs (based on their past circumstances). It captures personal/civil-status details, self-employed trading income, PAYE/BIK/pension income, foreign pension income, other Irish income, exempt income (Rent-a-Room, childcare), charges and deductions, personal tax credits, and the Chapter 4 Part 41A self-assessment calculation. Out of scope: Irish rental income (Panel C) and Capital Gains (Panel L), both of which the source form models as repeating per-property/per-asset schedules that the current flat field model (GSP-0009) cannot express; an individual with either should use the full Form 11 in any case per the helpsheet. This document models the 2025 edition (year ended 31 December 2025); Revenue reissues a fresh Form 11S each tax year, but no edition scheme in the current closed `edition.scheme` vocabulary (spec v0.3 SS5.7: us-tax-year / gb-tax-year / award-year) fits Ireland's calendar-year tax year, so this document is published at the plain (non-edition) registry path pending a spec proposal — see VERIFICATION.md and spec/proposals/0019-generalize-edition-scheme-calendar-tax-year.md. It does not submit the return; the live Revenue source is always authoritative.
