Apple EU tax transparency disclosures

Overview

Following new European Union transparency regulations, Apple has released detailed reports regarding its revenue, profits, and income taxes paid across individual EU member states for the fiscal year ending September 2025.

The disclosures highlight a significant tax payment to Ireland totaling approximately $17.1 billion. This figure is largely attributed to the liquidation of funds from an escrow or trust account following a European Court of Justice ruling. This legal matter stemmed from a 2016 European Commission finding that Ireland had provided Apple with illegal state aid through preferential tax treatment.

In Germany, the company reported a pre-tax profit of approximately $209 million and paid $153.5 million in income taxes. Apple maintains a workforce of 4,089 people in Germany, including more than 2,000 engineers at its European Silicon Design Center in Munich.
