Ireland's VAT threshold question begins with what the business sells
Ireland does not use one universal VAT-registration threshold for all activities. Revenue separates the main threshold analysis by the kind of supplies made, which means founders need to start with the business model rather than with a single memorized number.
Threshold advice is unreliable if it strips away the activity split
Many internet summaries collapse the thresholds into a single headline figure. Revenue's own page is better because it preserves the distinction between goods and services activity.
