If you need a ready-made company with a VAT number already in place, this is the right product. Each company comes with an active Irish VAT registration, no waiting, no separate Revenue application. You get a ready-made company with a live VAT number, clean books, and full documentation from day one.
Challenges of Registering VAT in Ireland. Over the past years, VAT registration has become significantly more demanding due to substance requirements (demonstrable business presence). Building the necessary substance often costs as much as, or more than, the purchase of a ready-made company.

A company with VAT already registered lets you invoice with VAT from day one and avoids the 8 to 12 week Revenue VAT application, which is why it is priced higher. If you do not need immediate VAT, a ready-made Irish company without VAT is the lower-cost option.
