But if they are travelling for six months and retain their tax residency in Ireland during that time, they should be okay? (I'm not an accountant, though, so hopefully there will be confirmation from the experts!).just be careful, I thought you had to be resident for the rent a room scheme, that's what I was told anyway.
the question is whether you can be "in occupation" while you are travelling for 6 months. difficult to know how that might be interpreted. obviously "in occupation" cannot be read completely literally otherwise you could not even go on a 2-week holiday.
hi webtax,
thanks for the reply. i called the stamp duty office in dublin castle and they basically said what you said. if you have a two bed property you can rent out one room in your absence. the key is that you always have the 'option' on the other room.
