Ordinary residence (Ireland)

Irish concept: a stickier 3-year residency status. Continues for 3 years after departing Ireland.

If you've been an Irish tax resident for 3 consecutive years, you become 'ordinarily resident' in Ireland. Ordinary residence persists for 3 consecutive years after you cease to be tax resident. Ordinary residents face slightly broader Irish tax exposure on certain foreign income and gains. The concept is an additional layer alongside Irish residency (day-count based) and domicile (long-term).
