Auto-enrolment starts 1 January 2026

AndyR.
Posted By

Ireland's new retirement savings scheme will auto-enrol employees who:

  • Are aged 23-60
  • Earn over €20,000
  • Don't already have a pension.

For every €3 an employee contributes, you will add €3, and the state adds €1. That means €7 goes into their savings account.

Sage 50 Payroll will support auto-enrolment

Coming later this year, our next software release will make auto-entry easy.

You'll retrieve pension instructions, similar to RPNS, so your software knows who to enrol. it will calculate contributions automatically and show them on payslips and reports.

There's no set-up needed, just update your software. Want to know more? Read our Auto-enrolment FAQ

  • I have tried to book to see what SAGE will look like and to find out what my clients need to do before 1st January.  As a managed payroll service provided I need to send them information but I don't have all the answers and what I need is some guidance.  By when would a client need to open a Pension scheme in order to become an exempt employer.
