The Domicile Levy was introduced in the 2010 Finance Act and is payable on or before 31 October in the year following the valuation date on a self-assessment basis. For example the due date in respect of 2010 was 31 October 2011. The valuation date is 31 December each year.

The table sets out the number of persons who have filed Domicile Levy returns and the amount collected since commencement. The table excludes 2016, which is not due until 31 October 2017.

I have asked Revenue to explore the reason behind the reduction in the numbers falling under the levy.
