Company Formation in Ireland

Effortless and affordable company set up in Ireland

Are you planning to start your own business in Ireland? SGK Dublin Accountants is a reputable and professional firm that can help you with your company formation needs. We have over 10 years of experience and expertise in helping people start and operate their own businesses in Ireland.

A business in Ireland is a legal entity that is separate and distinct from its owners and shareholders.

At SGK, we understand that starting a new company can be a daunting and stressful experience. So much so that we’re proud to say that 98% of our clients find their new companies within 30 days. And it’s not just for small businesses either – we’ve helped over 1,000 companies since 2009.

Our expertise doesn’t end at our amazing service, however. Our company formation team is comprised of experts who can advise on everything from how to start a business to which type of business structure to go for. You’ll want to consider the following options when thinking about company formation:

The first thing to consider is whether you want to incorporate or be an unincorporated company. The main difference is that an unincorporated company has no tax liability and is owned by the people that run it. On the other hand, incorporating means you’ll be subject to Irish corporation tax and will need to keep your books and records for a minimum of six years. Incorporation is also a legal requirement for companies with a turnover of more than €2.5m (€7m for overseas companies).

Incorporation is not always the right choice. For example, an LLC can be a better option than a C Corp for certain types of business. Here are some of the pros and cons of each:

An S Corp can be set up as a limited liability company, or an L or C Corp can be set up as a general partnership. This is also known as the ‘single member company’.

An LLC is a hybrid between a company and a partnership. In addition to the benefits of a company, you can also have the flexibility of a partnership.

When choosing an LLC, you should consider the following:

The most important factor to consider is the fact that an LLC will charge tax at a higher rate than a C Corp. As such, the C Corp route is often the more attractive option. However, there are ways around this. For example, you could convert your LLC into a C Corp or you could change the terms of your company to be a sole proprietor.

We also offer a range of legal services, including trademark searches and searches of intellectual property. Our team will assess your needs and provide you with all the information you need to make a decision.

UTS Parking & Transportation are the leading supplier of parking Pay and Display meters in Ireland. We have recently embarked on an expansion programme to provide a wider range of products and services to our Clients. SGK has been engaged to provide a high level financial expertise as well as compiling the financial module of a large-scale parking project. MThey provided the exact service UTS requires and they understood the complex nature of our business quickly enabling to concentrate their expertise in the areas of the business to deliver exactly the service we require.

SGK Dublin accountants got some extraordinarily talented accountants who switch effortlessly from managing the detail to recommending general financial direction. Their level of expertise allows to work both quickly and meticulously. I have no hesitation in recommending SGK.

We have been working with the team of SGK for the last year and our experience has been great. We have completely outsourced our accounting function to them, including book keeping, payroll and accounts. They are very attentive to detail, sensitive to timelines and offer sound practical advice. We now have timely accounting information to help us make better business decisions. I would highly recommend them.

We employed SGK accountancy as a bookkeeper but they have given so much more. Their book keeping and accountancy skills are superb and her ability to understand our business is impressive, quickly identifying areas where we can improve performance. We employed a bookkeeper and got an accountant, tax advisor and business advisor. Expert, reliable and great value.

SGK are more than an accountants. They are always available to talk to and have really helped us step up to the next level in business in the past year. They have helped me to understand my figures, reducing our overheads significantly. As a small business owner it is vital to know what is coming and out of the business each month. SGK Dublin accountants set up our cash flow excel sheets and projected profits for the year. Now we can see at a glance how the business is doing and can plan with peace of mind. I highly recommend SGK to anyone starting in business or to those already in business.

SGK are a pleasure to work with. They are thorough, insightful, honest and straight. The team is also very personable and easy to chat. They are also generous and willingly share their incredible store of knowledge. I would highly recommend their services.

SGK is great asset to any company, I would recommend SGK to anyone or any business looking for an accountant, honest and expert in what they do.

I moved my accounting needs to SGK Dublin Accountants in January of this year. Following many conversations with Damien and team, I found their approach to be not only fully ethical and professional but practical and genuinely helpful to me as a small business owner. Damien is exceptionally thorough and clear in how he presents his advice and I have a great sense of comfort and trust in the level of care he is taking with my business. Already, we have implemented some small changes which have optimised our liabilities and helped us reduce costs which is essential for us like so many other small businesses at this time. I would have no hesitation in recommending SGK to other business owners.

SGK worked with me to produce year-end accounts for my business and corporate and personal tax returns. They are very organised and very quickly compiled all the necessary information. They are very knowledgeable about the tax system and provided some very good advice. I have no hesitation in recommending them for similar work.

SGK has provided outstanding advice and service to my company. Over the years I tried different accountancy providers but all had short-comings or incomplete service and advice. Their depth of knowledge, practical help and advice makes SGK Accountancy Services stand out from the crowd. I have no qualms offering my highest recommendation.
