Help with cost of taxes & utilities in ROI
Hi, My wife and I are looking at moving to the Republic of Ireland with our 3 children (6,5 and one on way) latest of Summer of 2021. I'm a driving instructor and looking at starting up around the Wexford area. We have found a lot of information but the hardest bit of information we are trying to find out is how much it would roughly cost for utilities and council tax.
In the UK we are currently paying per month Council tax €188.57 Water €51.54 Gas & Electric €124.99 Home Insurance €24.06 Broadband €35.14 Do these prices reflect those in the Republic or are they higher/lower? Is there any other charges that we should expect to pay? We have done food shop comparisons and we find that the price is only different by a few pounds. I have spoke to some instructors and the cost of car insurance is about the same as the UK. I'm also under the impression that once you earn over €26k you then go into a higher tax bracket is this right? Any help greatly received Andy & Rachel |
