Why non-residents form companies in Ireland
Ireland is the most popular EU jurisdiction for non-resident entrepreneurs — and for good reason. With a 12.5% corporate tax rate, English-speaking business environment, common-law legal system, and full EU market access, an Irish LTD is the ideal vehicle for international founders.
Whether you're a UK founder navigating post-Brexit trade, a US tech founder looking for an EU base, or an Asian or Middle Eastern entrepreneur seeking access to European customers, Ireland combines the credibility of an EU jurisdiction with the simplicity of forming a company in days, not months.
What's included in our non-resident packages
Our non-resident formation packages are all-in. We don't charge separately for the Non-EEA Director Bond, Registered Office, or Company Secretary — these are bundled. You also get full CRO filing, your Certificate of Incorporation, constitution, and digital company kit.
Section 137 Non-EEA Director Bond
If your company has no EEA-resident director, Irish law requires a €25,000 insurance bond. We arrange this for you with our partner insurers.
Registered Office Address
Every Irish company must have a physical address in Ireland. Use our Dublin city centre address — fully compliant, mail-forwarded weekly.
Company Secretary
Irish companies need a Secretary. We provide a qualified Irish-resident Secretary so you stay compliant from day one.
