    A review checklist for company formation websites

    Look for clear prices, named deliverables, CRO filing fee treatment, turnaround expectations, company officer requirements, support availability and refund or cancellation wording.

    If you are a non-resident founder, check whether the provider explains IPN numbers, Section 137 bonds, registered office address, RBO registration and banking preparation clearly.

    Official references worth checking include the CRO company incorporation guidance, CRO officer guidance and Revenue VAT registration guidance where tax registration is relevant.

    Compare like for like

    A low formation price can be good value if it includes exactly what you need. It can also become more expensive if required steps are priced separately. Compare the complete first-year route, not only incorporation.

    StartCompany.ie packages are designed around the practical documents and follow-up steps founders usually need to get an Irish LTD started properly.

    Official references worth checking include the CRO company incorporation guidance, CRO officer guidance and Revenue VAT registration guidance where tax registration is relevant.
