Irish employees claim Remote Working Relief — 30% of electricity, heating and broadband, apportioned by the days you worked from home — at your marginal rate. There is no flat annual rate. Mileage at the civil service rates is a tax-free reimbursement your employer can pay, not something an employee can deduct; the self-employed deduct actual motor running costs instead.
You can only claim the work-related portion, you must have spent the money yourself without reimbursement, and you need a record to prove it.
