Revenue has already paid out €6.6m under the TBESS energy support scheme for businesses

Revenue said 2022 saw record-breaking tax receipts, with the body collecting €82.2bn in taxes and duties for the Exchequer.

Revenue collected an extra €110m in customs duty on imports last year, a 21% increase driven by the exit of the UK from the European Union.

Publishing its preliminary results for 2022 including tax and duty collected, Revenue said almost half of the €640m in customs duties related to imports from the UK which is now outside the EU and subject to customs formalities.
