For some exemptions you also need to submit documentation to Revenue. You can find more information on the documentation to submit for each exemption on the relevant page in this section.

You can claim an exemption for the year for 2024, even if you did not claim that exemption previously.

If you claimed an LPT exemption to which you are not correctly entitled, you should correct your LPT Return. You can correct your LPT Return through the online 'Correct Return' service in myAccount, Revenue Online Service (ROS) or the LPT online service.

Any additional LPT charge due will be subject to interest.
