I am advised by Revenue that the number of taxpayer units broken down by income range can be found in Revenue’s ‘Income Tax Distributions Interactive tables’ publication, available on the Revenue website at www.revenue.ie/en/corporate/information-about-revenue/statistics/income-distributions/stats/Income-Tax-breakdown-by-Gross-Income.aspx . The statistics run from 2004 to 2022, the latest year for which fully analysed data are available.

The data are presented by income range rather than income decile. Based on the latest data for 2022, approximately 25% of all taxpayer units were in the €0-15,000 gross income range while approximately 10% of all taxpayers were in the €90,000 and higher gross income range. Other available ranges can be found in the link provided above and calculations performed accordingly.
