Requirements for Non-EU Residents

Setting up a company in Ireland as a non‑EU resident requires meeting specific legal and compliance steps to ensure your legal entity is registered correctly and remains compliant:

  1. Non‑EEA resident director requirements — appoint at least one director who is resident in the EEA or obtain a Section 137 bond to cover potential penalties.
  2. Beneficial ownership register — registration with the central beneficial ownership register is mandatory for all companies.
  3. Revenue Commissioners — submit all legal entity details to the Revenue Commissioners for tax setup (e.g., corporation tax) and maintain accurate records.
  4. Ongoing compliance — file annual returns, keep statutory registers, and update director/shareholder changes promptly to remain compliant under Irish company law.

Meeting these requirements helps protect your company’s standing and ensures smooth operation in Ireland.

 

Required Documentation

To incorporate your Irish company, you will need to provide a specific set of documents to meet regulatory requirements. This includes:

  • Company director booklet containing personal and identification details of each director
  • Original incorporation certificate issued by the Companies Registration Office
  • In certain cases, a valid tax residence certificate

These documents ensure your application is processed correctly and your company is registered in full compliance with Irish corporate law.
