This will involve a significant increase in the burden to the taxpayer. The reform also establishes limits on inflation relief for the transfer of assets with a price of over €400,000, the effect of which we will analyse some other time in this blog.

€6,000 - €24,000 at 25% = €4,500  €6,000 - €50,000 at 22% = €9,680
€24,000 - €24,400 at 27% = €108
