Ireland · Company formation

Service scope

Review entity options, shareholder and management requirements, then coordinate formation documents and official registration.

Original general planning guidance; not destination-specific legal, tax or licensing advice.

Basic conditions

• An LTD may have one or more members, an Irish registered office, at least one director and a secretary. A sole director must have a different secretary. At least one EEA-resident director is generally required; otherwise a prescribed section 137 bond or statutory exemption applies. The bond face value is not its purchase price.

Required documents

• Submit Form A1 and the single-document LTD constitution. Prepare name, registered office, director and secretary details and consents, subscribers and shares, principal activity and NACE code. Identity verification and overseas documents need applicant-specific review.

Process

• Confirm name, officers and registered office; sign the constitution and consents; submit A1 and the constitution on CORE and pay the official fee. CRO checks the filing; corrections rejoin the queue by resubmission date. A compliant application receives a certificate of incorporation.
