Some of our happy clients
James Mac William26. October, 2022.Edit: the team willing to work with me on the price, once the scope of work changed, which speaks volumes to their professionalism, and from one small business owner to another, made a big difference when my own business encountered a setback. I had originally written that they do an excellent job with their services (their offering was quick, entirely online, and comprehensive) but wasn't happy with accounting prices once I found I had to shut down my business without any taxable activity. Their team was very fair with me despite the negative circumstances for my business being completely out of their control. From one small business owner to another, thank you :)

Why do you need a Section 137 Bond?
If you are setting up a company in Ireland and none of the directors are resident in the EEA/EU, you must purchase a Section 137 Bond to be legally compliant. The bond insures the company for €25,000 against certain breaches of the Companies Acts and Taxes Acts for a period of 2 years. After two years, the bond will need to be renewed unless you have appointed an EEA resident director or if you have established a significant economic link with Ireland in that time.
What should I do once my company is set up?
Once your company is registered, you will receive a Certificate of Incorporation and the Company Number of your new company. Then, you should register the Beneficial Owner with the Registration Of Beneficial Ownership (RBO) and start the tax registration process. If you have chosen to outsource company formation and/or tax registration to Accountant Online, we will expertly guide you through the next steps.
What happens if I don't renew the Section 137 Bond?
Your company will not be compliant with Company Law if you need to have a Section 137 Bond in place and you do not have one. Consequences of not renewing the Section 137 Bond can include not being able to file Annual Returns with the Companies Registration Office (CRO) on time. This can lead to fines and penalties until your company is up-to-date. If you are in this situation or you're not sure of your next steps, please reach out to our expert Client Services Team who can advise of your next steps.
How long does it take to register a company in Ireland with a Section 137 Bond?
Our teams start to work on your company registration application as soon as you purchase online. Usually, the Section 137 Bond takes around 3 weeks to process from when it is submitted to the financial institution. In general, it takes between 3-5 working days for the CRO to process your company registration application.
