The Tax Appeals Commission is pleased to announce the publication of its 2020 Annual Report Despite the global pandemic, the Commission successfully adapted and innovated to meet the challenge by purchasing the technology to offer remote hearings allowing the public to continue to receive ‘access to justice. The quantum of appeals scheduled for hearing was €1.531 billion and the number of determinations issued increased by over 50% with a quantum valued at €610m. The Commission looks forward to building on these positive results in 2021.

The Tax Appeals Commission has now resumed scheduling hearings from the second week of August with strict Protocols in place now to response to the Covid-19 virus. Every effort is being made to prioritise postponed hearings as soon as possible. We are now also offering parties the option to attend a physical hearing in the office or attend by way of remote access using video conference facilities. A reduced number of staff will be attending the office from August 2020 so we would appreciate it if you could continue to send any correspondence, including notices of appeal, by email to info@taxappeals.ie, where possible. Thank you for your understanding.
