Are there any local property taxes or charges for apartments in Dublin?

For a standard residential tenancy at Docklands Living in Dublin, you are not normally responsible for Ireland’s Local Property Tax (LPT). The owner is generally liable for that tax, rather than a rent-paying tenant with a tenancy shorter than 20 years.

Ireland does not have the same council tax system as England. However, other household costs or charges may still apply under your agreement.

Costs to check in Dublin

• Electricity, gas or heating arrangements for your apartment.
• Broadband & optional television services.
• Any separately agreed parking or EV charging.
• Waste collection or other services, if separately chargeable under the tenancy.
• Contents insurance for your own belongings.

We will explain any costs that are not included in your monthly rent. Any permitted charge should be clear in your tenancy documents or a separate agreed service arrangement.

You can read Irish Revenue’s Local Property Tax guidance for the owner & tenant liability rules.
