Firmengründung in Irland

Wichtig: Das Recht eines Nichtansässigen, Eigentümer des Unternehmens zu sein, berechtigt nicht automatisch dazu, in diesem Land zu leben, zu arbeiten oder das Unternehmen von dort aus zu führen. Einwanderungsstatus, Arbeitserlaubnis, wirtschaftliche Substanz, Ort der tatsächlichen Geschäftsleitung und Steueransässigkeit werden gesondert geprüft.

• —Exported digital and professional services with a clear contracting and ownership model.
• —EU/EEA ventures able to maintain an Irish registered office, governance and genuine activity.
• —Startups and groups requiring an LTD, DAC, PLC or guarantee structure for a defined purpose.

• —A private company limited by shares (LTD), the standard commercial form that may have a single director.
• —A designated activity company (DAC), whose constitution defines its permitted objects.
• —A public limited company (PLC), a public form with enhanced capital and governance requirements.
• —A company limited by guarantee (CLG), used for membership and non-profit projects without share capital.
• —An unlimited company (ULC/PUC/PULC), a specialist form without the standard limitation of member liability.

• —A physical registered office in Ireland and a stated principal activity with the corresponding NACE code.
• —Every company needs a secretary; a single-director LTD must appoint a different person to that role.
• —At least one EEA-resident director or a €25,000 bond; a certificate of real and continuous link is a separate subsequent route, not an automatic filing substitute.
• —An LTD has no general statutory minimum share capital; capital and share rights are set out in the constitution and Form A1.
• —Regulated services, employment and immigration require their own permissions and registrations.

• —A passport or other acceptable ID for every founder, director, signatory and ultimate beneficial owner (UBO).
• —Current proof of residential address and tax residence for every person subject to verification.
• —A transparent ownership chart through to natural persons; a corporate participant also provides an extract, constitutional documents, good standing and an investment resolution.
• —A description of the activity, markets, counterparties, expected turnover, source of funds and source of wealth, supported by evidence.
• —Form A1, constitution, name, NACE/activity data, share allocation and officer details.
• —Evidence of the Irish registered office and an agreed company-secretary arrangement.
• —EEA-resident director details or statutory-bond documents; corporate founders provide a certified registry pack.

1. 01Review the form, Irish business rationale, activity, ownership, director/secretary and EEA-residence route.
2. 02Reserve the name, agree the constitution, address and shares, and prepare the A1/CORE pack.
3. 03Collect signatures, arrange the bond where needed and file the pack with CRO through CORE.
4. 04After incorporation, set up RBO, the tax/accounting calendar and a separate bank/EMI KYB process.

• —An Irish company files Corporation Tax; the applicable treatment depends on trading/non-trading income, the period and actual activity.
• —VAT, payroll, withholding and transfer-pricing rules apply according to transactions, employees, turnover and related parties.
• —Incorporation and an Irish address alone do not resolve effective-management, PE or CFC questions in owners' other jurisdictions.

Allgemeiner Überblick, keine individuelle Steuer- oder Rechtsberatung. Die Vorschriften werden vor der Einreichung erneut geprüft.

• —A bank or EMI separately assesses Irish nexus, the business model, directors, UBOs, source of funds/source of wealth and payment geography.
• —An EEA-resident director or bond meets a company-law condition but does not replace a bank's substance review.

• —An annual return to CRO and financial statements in the applicable form and period.
• —A Corporation Tax return, VAT/payroll filings where applicable and proper accounting records.
• —Updates to the registered office, officers, shares and beneficial ownership in the relevant registers.

• —Having no EEA-resident director without a valid bond leaves the structure non-compliant with the Companies Act.
• —A formal address without demonstrable Irish activity weakens the tax, banking and substance position.
• —Incorporation does not disapply UBO disclosure, AML/KYC or sanctions screening by the registrar, notary, provider, tax authority or financial institution.
• —The place of incorporation does not automatically determine tax residence: effective management, permanent establishment, CFC rules and the owners' personal residence require separate analysis.
• —Registration does not grant a licence, residence or work rights and does not guarantee a bank or EMI account.

• —Coordination of CRO/CORE filing, the Irish address, secretary and director/bond solution, followed by delivery of the full statutory file.
• —Comparison of entity forms, ownership structure, governance, tax links and substance requirements before filing.
• —Coordination of the address, notary, lawyer or authorised representative, translations, apostille and the corporate pack.
• —Preparation of a verifiable KYB data room and responses to legitimate compliance requests without promising a bypass, approval or timing.
• —Accountant hand-off and creation of an accounts, tax, VAT, payroll, UBO, licence and registry compliance calendar.
