Is Irish residency required to establish a company in Ireland?
No, you do not need to be an Irish resident to set up a company in Ireland. However, if your company doesn't have at least one EU/EEA resident director, you will need to obtain a Section 137 Bond. Please reach out to our team for further information.
Why do I need a company secretary?
Irish companies are legally required to have a company secretary. Company secretaries are responsible for maintaining and organising important company documents with the Companies Registration Office (CRO). They stay updated on legal changes and help the company adhere to CRO reporting requirements. Failure to comply with these obligations can lead to legal issues and penalties.
Why do I need a company seal?
It is a legal requirement to have a company seal. A company seal, also known as a corporate seal, is a traditional tool used by companies to emboss official documents or certificates. It adds a level of formality to documents such as contracts, deeds, share certificates, and agreements.
Am I obligated to use the provided constitution?
Our standard company constitution aligns with the Companies Act 2014 and has been designed for your convenience. While it is possible to create a constitution tailored to your specific business needs, it must adhere to CRO guidelines. Please be aware that custom constitutions may take slightly longer to gain acceptance. We encourage you to consult with our Client Services Team to discuss your requirements, and we are more than happy to assist you.
How long does the company registration process in Ireland usually take?
As soon as you make an online purchase, our teams commence working on your company registration application. All our procedures are conducted online, offering you a convenient and streamlined process for submitting all necessary information. In general, it takes approximately 3-5 working days for the CRO to process your company registration application.
What should I do once my company is set up?
Once your company is registered, our Company Team will email you your 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.
