Dublin-Based, Revenue-Focused, Fully Qualified
TAS Consulting is an Irish firm with a team that understands Irish tax law not generic international bookkeeping practice, but specifically how Revenue, the CRO, and the Companies Act 2014 work in the Dublin business environment.
Our bookkeepers are qualified professionals holding qualifications from Accounting Technicians Ireland (ATI), ACCA, and equivalent bodies. Every member of our team works to the same standards and the same deadlines, so your books are never at risk because one person is on leave or has left the firm.
We are also Xero-certified and work across all major cloud accounting platforms used by Dublin businesses Xero, QuickBooks Online, Sage Business Cloud, and FreeAgent. If you are not yet on cloud software, we will recommend the right platform and manage the migration.
Outsourced Bookkeeping vs In-House The Dublin Comparison
Hiring a bookkeeper in Dublin is expensive. A qualified bookkeeper commands a salary of €32,000–€42,000 per year plus employer PRSI at 11.15%, annual leave cover, sick leave, training costs, and software licences. The real annual cost of an in-house Dublin bookkeeper typically runs to €40,000–€50,000 before you account for management time.
Outsourcing your bookkeeping to TAS Consulting costs a fraction of that with no recruitment risk, no knowledge loss when someone leaves, no holiday cover problems, and no software costs. You get a full team rather than a single individual meaning your accounts are never dependent on one person’s availability or expertise.
What you get with TAS Consulting that you cannot get from one in-house hire:
A team with combined expertise in bookkeeping, VAT, payroll, tax, and company secretarial compliance
Full Revenue audit support we know your records because we maintain them
Continuity no disruption when staff leave, go on parental leave, or take annual leave
Scalability your bookkeeping package grows with your business without rehiring
We work with the platforms your Dublin business already uses or we will help you move to the right one.
Hubdoc automated fetching of bills and bank statements from supplier portals
Xero our most widely used platform; real-time dashboard, automated bank feeds, strong invoicing
QuickBooks Online excellent for payroll integration and management reporting
Sage Business Cloud widely used across Dublin retail and larger SMEs
FreeAgent ideal for contractors, freelancers, and sole traders
Dext mobile receipt capture with automatic data extraction into your accounting system
What Happens When Revenue Comes Calling
Every Dublin business can receive a Revenue compliance check, audit, or query at any time. When that happens, the quality of your bookkeeping records is what determines how quickly and cleanly you can respond.
Because TAS Consulting maintains your books, we have complete visibility of every transaction in your records. If Revenue contacts you, we can:
Prepare a full reconciliation of any period under review
Compile the supporting documentation Revenue requests
Respond to queries on your behalf where authorised as your tax agent
Liaise directly with Revenue throughout the review process
Businesses whose bookkeeping is maintained properly throughout the year have significantly fewer problems and significantly lower professional costs during Revenue compliance reviews than those who scramble to reconstruct records at the point of inquiry.

Do I still need an accountant if I have a bookkeeper?
Yes. A bookkeeper maintains your day-to-day financial records. An accountant prepares your statutory financial statements, corporation tax return, and strategic tax advice. TAS Consulting provides both services, meaning your bookkeeping flows seamlessly into your year-end compliance without duplication or delay.
Can you take over from my existing bookkeeper?
Yes. We regularly onboard clients who are switching from in-house bookkeepers, previous outsourced providers, or self-managed books. We review your existing records, identify and correct any issues, and establish a clean going-forward position. Most transitions are completed within one to two weeks.
What if my books are behind or in a mess?
This is more common than you might think. We provide bookkeeping catch-up and cleanup services for businesses whose records have fallen behind. We will bring your books up to date and establish a reliable, ongoing bookkeeping routine going forward.
Do you work with businesses outside Dublin?
Yes. While our primary focus is Dublin, TAS Consulting provides bookkeeping services to businesses across Ireland fully remotely using cloud accounting software. Geography is no barrier to professional bookkeeping.
TAS Consulting’s nominee directors are experienced Irish professionals with a strong track record across multiple board positions. They are fully vetted, professionally indemnified, and well regarded by Irish accounting and legal practitioners.
