Post-Brexit formation planning
Before Brexit, UK residency was treated differently for EEA director rules. Today, a UK-resident director should not assume they satisfy the EEA-resident director requirement.
That makes it important to check whether the Irish company needs a Section 137 bond, an EEA-resident director or another route before incorporation.
Official references worth checking include the CRO company incorporation guidance, CRO officer guidance and Revenue VAT registration guidance where tax registration is relevant.
Practical steps for UK founders
Prepare director details, proof of identity, address details, shareholder structure, registered office plans and a short business activity description.
After incorporation, consider RBO registration, Revenue registration, banking and annual return planning.
Official references worth checking include the CRO company incorporation guidance, CRO officer guidance and Revenue VAT registration guidance where tax registration is relevant.
Frequently asked questions
Can a UK resident form an Irish company?
+
Yes. UK residents can own and direct Irish companies, but EEA director residency requirements should be reviewed.
Does a UK director count as EEA-resident?
+
The UK is not in the EEA, so a company with only UK-resident directors may need a Section 137 bond or another route.
Do UK founders need an IPN?
+
A UK founder without an Irish PPSN may need IPN support for Irish company filing requirements.
