Finance minister Paschal Donohoe announced a tax credit to support the visual effects sector in Ireland in his Budget 2026 speech which will provide a 40% rate of relief for productions with a minimum of €1m of eligible expenditure on visual effects. The rate will apply up to a maximum of €10m per production.
