EWSS Registration is now open.

Eligible employers or their payroll/tax agents can now register for EWSS through ROS.  Revenue confirmed the opening of the registration facility on Wednesday 20th August.  Employers who are claiming the TWSS must separately register for the EWSS as different eligibility conditions apply to both schemes.

Revenue confirmed that registration applications will only be processed if the employer:

• is registered for PAYE/PRSI
• has a bank account linked to the PAYE/PRSI registration, and
• has tax clearance

The employer or payroll/tax agent must make a self-declaration to Revenue confirming eligibility for the scheme, undertake to adhere to the required terms and conditions and retain all relevant records relating to the scheme.
