Common questions

How long does incorporation take?

Most Irish LTDs are registered within about five working days of filing, provided the name is available and the documents are in order.

Do I need an Irish resident director?

An Irish company needs at least one director resident in the EEA. If none of your directors qualify, you either need a Section 137 non-resident bond or a nominee resident director — both of which we provide.

What is the difference between the bundles?

Build Your Own Company incorporates the company and nothing else. The Start Up Bundle adds RBO and tax registration plus a registered office and company secretary for a year. The Ultimate Bundle adds bank account assistance on top.

Can I add services later?

Yes. Everything in the bundles can be bought separately at any time from your portal.
