Income Tax registration for company directors

Registering a company for Corporation Tax does not register its directors. Where a director falls within the self-assessment regime in a personal capacity, that is a separate registration with Revenue, and the obligation sits with the individual rather than the company.

Who this applies to

The distinction that matters is between a proprietary and a non-proprietary director. A proprietary director is one who owns or controls more than 15 per cent of the ordinary share capital of the company. A proprietary director is treated as a chargeable person and is required to file a Form 11 income tax return for each tax year, even where all of their income has already been taxed at source under PAYE.

Non-proprietary directors and unpaid directors are generally outside that annual filing obligation. In most owner-managed companies the founder holds well above 15 per cent, so the obligation applies from the first year.

What the obligation involves

Registration for income tax under self-assessment
An annual Form 11 return, due by 31 October following the end of the tax year
Preliminary tax payments on account under the self-assessment rules

Non-resident founders

A director does not need to be resident in Ireland to be a proprietary director. Whether a Form 11 obligation actually arises for a non-resident depends on their own circumstances, including their residence position and whether they draw remuneration from the company. We register the director and confirm the filing position that applies to them, rather than assuming one. Where the position is not clear cut we will say so before anything is filed.

What we do

Establish whether the director is a proprietary director by reference to the share register
Register the director for income tax with Revenue
Confirm the registration and the first return due date in writing
Set out what the director needs to have ready for the first Form 11

Price shown is per director, exclusive of VAT. This service covers the registration itself. Preparation and filing of the annual Form 11 is a separate service.
