Many non-Irish companies find that having an Irish operation makes good sense

This is often because of the 12.5% corporation tax rate and the many double-tax treaties that establish Ireland as a mainstream tax jurisdiction and not a tax haven. 

However, there are many other benefits. Ireland is the only English-speaking country in the Eurozone and there is a flexible, well educated workforce. The environment is very business friendly and there are many grants available, particularly for knowledge-intensive activities. Ireland is the European sales and service base for many prominent multinationals.

What is involved?
I have set up such an Irish operation recently, and I can provide everything needed to establish a business of genuine substance:
  • Company formation
  • Non-executive or executive directorships. I can act myself and can find other suitable people as required
  • Setting up tax registration - VAT, employment taxes, corporation tax
  • Company secretarial
  • Establishing bank accounts - euro and other currencies - and setting up online banking
  • Company administration - accounting and reporting, tax returns, managing payments, dealing with auditors (if applicable), etc
  • Establishing and administering payroll
  • Negotiating grant assistance

Any Irish operations must be managed and controlled in Ireland, and it is of great benefit to have real local business people as directors/employees.
