Why Form Your Company in Ireland?
Ireland combines full EU membership with an English-speaking, pro-business environment, making it a natural home for both local founders and international companies.
Limited Liability Protection
An Irish LTD is its own legal person. Shareholder exposure is capped at the value of their shares, keeping personal assets behind a clear legal line.
Open to Non-Residents
Citizenship and shareholder location place no limit on ownership. You need one EEA-resident director — or a Section 137 bond — and we handle either route for you.
12.5% Trading Tax Rate
Ireland's headline corporation tax on trading income sits among the lowest in the EU, a key reason global businesses choose to base operations here.
A True EU Gateway
An Irish company gives you a credible, English-speaking foothold inside the European single market, ideal for trading across the EU and beyond.
Credibility as a Business
An EU-registered Irish company is recognised internationally, making it easier to open bank accounts, sign contracts and present your business professionally to clients worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about forming an Irish company
Yes. Your nationality and where your shareholders are based place no limit on ownership. Irish law does require at least one director resident in the EEA; if none of your directors qualify, a Section 137 non-resident director bond can be used instead, which we arrange for you.
A fully digital LTD incorporation starts at €249, and a standard LTD with a posted document pack is €295. Both already include VAT, the CRO processing fees and your company documents. Other structures such as a DAC (€349), unlimited company (€395) or PLC (€495) are also available.
Every formation price includes VAT, the Companies Registration Office processing fees and standard postage of your company package. Before filing, we check your chosen name against the register, confirm your director, shareholder and member set-up, and draft the company constitution for your company type.
Yes. Every Irish company must appoint a company secretary and maintain a registered office address in the State. Where a company has a single director, the secretary must be a different person. We can act as your company secretary and provide a registered office; both are quoted on request.
If an Irish company has no EEA-resident director, a Section 137 bond satisfies the requirement instead. The total fee is €1,957.50 including VAT, it runs for two years and is non-refundable, and it insures the company for €25,000 against certain Companies Act and Revenue penalties. Appointing an EEA-resident director removes the need for a bond.
Ireland's headline rate of corporation tax on trading income is 12.5%, among the most competitive in the EU and a major reason international businesses base themselves here. Your exact position depends on your activities, so we can introduce you to tax advisers where needed.
Yes. Irish company formation can be handled entirely online without travelling to Ireland. Identity checks for directors and shareholders are completed digitally, and your company documents are delivered to you electronically or by post.
Most founders register a private company limited by shares (LTD), which offers limited liability and a single-document constitution. Other structures are available too, including a Designated Activity Company (DAC), an unlimited company (ULC), a public limited company (PLC) and a company limited by guarantee (CLG).
