Business start-up advisory in Ireland: from first idea to first customer
Most start-ups don't fail because the idea was bad. They fail because of money, structure or paperwork nobody warned them about. We sit down with you, test the idea, choose the right structure, work out how to fund it and get you registered, then stay on hand once you're trading. It starts with a free chat, and there's no long contract.
Your launch path
Which funding fits your start-up?
Two quick questions for a rough steer. Nothing is stored or sent.
Four stages, and you stay in control
We only go ahead with what you approve.
Idea consultation
A free first chat by phone or online, or in person if you prefer. You tell us the idea and we tell you what we see.
Analysis and registration
We weigh up structure and funding, and handle the registration with the CRO and Revenue.
Approval and planning
You get a draft report of our recommendations, and we proceed only with what you approve.
Support after launch
Accounting, VAT, payroll and financial guidance as you grow, with no long-term contract.
Sole trader, partnership or company?
Sole trader
The simplest start, with no registration beyond Revenue. You're personally liable for the business's debts.
Partnership
Two or more people sharing profits and, usually, personal liability. A written agreement is essential.
Limited company
A separate legal person with limited liability and 12.5% corporation tax on trading profits. More admin, more credibility. Read the full guide.
Obligations to plan for from day one
Starting a business in Ireland from abroad
You can
You'll need an Irish registered office and either an EEA-resident director, a Section 137 bond or an exemption. See the options.
Plan for the bank
Opening a business bank account can take several weeks, and some banks ask for an in-person meeting. Start early.
