Before you place your order
UAE residence does not meet the EEA-director requirement. Even an EU passport holder living in Dubai must assess residence, not nationality, when choosing the formation route.
Remote service for founders in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and the wider UAE. We do not supply UAE offices, visas or free-zone registrations.
Discuss my setup- Record where every proposed director actually resides, rather than using passport nationality as a shortcut.
- Tell us whether an individual, mainland company or free-zone company will own the Irish shares.
- Have advisers review Irish and UAE management, reporting and funding before moving existing trading activity.
A setup that matches your operation
Dubai residence and the bond decision
If every director lives in the UAE and none is a qualifying EEA resident, review the Section 137 bond route. The Non-Resident package includes a two-year bond, but its published scope does not include an Irish registered-office address. Arrange that separately if needed, and identify the secretary before filing. If a genuine EEA-resident co-director is part of the proposed company, a standard package may be suitable even though the principal shareholder lives in Dubai.
Official reference: CRO: directors, secretary and EEA residenceA new Irish LTD, not a free-zone extension
The Irish company is a separate entity with its own constitution, officers, shares and Irish filing obligations. It is not automatically a branch of a UAE business or covered by the parent's local permissions. Where a UAE company will own it, we need to review the corporate shareholder and ultimate ownership chain. An Irish registered office is an address service, not a management team, tax-residence certificate or staffed operational premises.
Official reference: CRO: incorporation requirementsReview how the two operations will work together
Before incorporation, map the actual work, management decisions, client contracts and movement of money between the UAE and Ireland. Ask qualified advisers in both jurisdictions to assess the structure rather than relying on a headline tax rate. Revenue's company-residence guidance contains treaty qualifications to the Irish incorporation rule. Our formation package does not deliver a UAE tax opinion, guaranteed banking, residence permission or an automatic transfer of an existing licence or customer relationship.

Check the selected package first to avoid buying an included service twice. Additional services are separate orders, not preselected charges.

View serviceFrom package to incorporated company
Choose the right scope
Check director residence, ownership, identity numbers and address needs. Ask us first about corporate shareholders or an unusual structure.
Supply the company details
Use the existing checkout to provide proposed names, officers, shareholders and activity. We review requirements and prepare the incorporation documents.
Review, sign and file
Complete the required signatures, verification and any bond steps. The application goes to the CRO, which decides acceptance and incorporation.
Prepare for trading
Receive the incorporation documents after approval. Arrange tax registration, banking, records and the agreed post-formation services separately.
Questions before you buy
I have an EU passport but live in Dubai. Do I need a bond?
Nationality alone does not meet the EEA-resident director condition. Check the actual residence of all proposed directors. If none qualifies and no exemption applies, the company needs the bond route.
Does an Irish registered office establish a staffed Irish business?
No. It supplies the agreed registered-office service, not staff, management or proof of every tax or banking requirement. Describe the intended business operation before ordering additional services.
What is included in the formation price?
Every published package includes the core incorporation documents and CRO filing fee. The full inclusions are shown with each package. Registered office, IPN support, RBO registration and the first annual return are not included in every package. A paid secretary appointment and ongoing accounting are separate services.
Can I begin without travelling to Ireland?
You can start the order and supply information remotely. Identity verification, witnessing, signatures or supporting evidence may involve additional steps. We confirm the filing requirements before submission. A bank may apply separate in-person or other verification requirements.
How long does company registration take?
Timing depends on complete documents, identity numbers, any required bond and current CRO processing. Paying for formation is not incorporation. Company names and applications remain subject to CRO approval; we do not guarantee a fixed incorporation date.
Are banking, tax registration or residence rights guaranteed?
No. Incorporation, bank approval, tax registration and personal immigration or work permission are separate. Formation does not guarantee tax savings, an account or permission to live or work in Ireland. Discuss tax-registration support separately if needed.
