The non-resident formation route
Non-resident company registration needs more planning than a simple resident formation. Director residency, PPSN/IPN details, registered office and beneficial ownership filing should be reviewed together.
If no director is EEA-resident, the company may need a Section 137 bond before incorporation can proceed smoothly.
Official references worth checking include the CRO company incorporation guidance, CRO officer guidance and Revenue VAT registration guidance where tax registration is relevant.
Banking and tax after formation
After incorporation, non-resident founders usually need to prepare a banking file and consider Revenue registrations based on the company's activity.
