I am advised by Revenue that the gross amount of Corporation Tax paid by the ten largest multinational groups (in Corporation Tax payment terms) was €3,436 million in 2017. This represented 37 per cent of the total gross Corporation Tax payments that year. The gross amount of Corporation Tax paid by the top 20 multinational groups was €4,207 million in 2017. This represented 45 per cent of the total gross Corporation Tax payments that year. These figures are provisional figures.

I am also advised that Revenue will publish a detailed analysis of the most recently available Corporation Tax data in April.
