Irish Effective Rate (%) ?

[DirectDevil]

I got a P21 balancing statement recently.

Panel 8 refers to an Irish Effective Rate (%) of 17.10.

Out of sheer curiosity what is this about ?

You probably had foreign dividends/income.
The Irish effective rate
It reflects the rate at which you have paid ( or are liable to pay) tax on total income.
You calculate it by taking the tax payable (before any credit for foreign tax) x 100 / total income.
