‘Irish Corporation Tax – Still an incentive for International Companies’

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010

Following my recent article on Corporation Tax in Ireland including the three year corporate tax exemption & recent changes in transfer pricing rules there has been news this week of the continung trend for multinational/International companies locating their activities in Ireland.

This is buoyed by goverment pressure from USA & UK offshore jursidictions such as Cayman Islands & Bermuda. Our low corporation tax rates and the continuing government commitment to these also offers a great incentive and presents a desirable option to Foreign owned corporates.

We continue to notice a steady stream of foreign companies locating in Ireland who generally operate though a private limited company or branch.

Foreign Companies Operating in Ireland – Branch or Place of Business?

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

There are legal obligations on foreign companies operating in Ireland to register with the CRO, normally within 1 month of beginning operations here. Most companies will either have a Place of Business or a Branch.  The difference between these two types of registration depend on whether the company’s activities in Ireland are part of the company’s  main business or are just ancilliary activities such as a representative office with decision making on contracts being made at head office overseas. If you would like to discuss your own companies status please refer to O’Mahony Donnelly contact details.
