What Does Company Registration in Ireland Cost?
Every Irish company formation includes some fixed costs and some optional ones. A standalone limited company formation with Abbey Blue Formations starts at €149, with the CRO application fee included. From there, your total depends on what your situation requires:
- Company secretary — required by law for every Irish company; included in all our packages
- Registered office address — required by law; from €30/month if you don't have an Irish business address
- Section 137 bond — required only if no director is EEA-resident (common for non-resident founders)
- VAT & tax registration — needed if you'll trade above VAT thresholds or want to reclaim VAT
- Bookkeeping & accounting — every company must keep proper books; our plans start with a free first month on the Ultimate package
Our formation packages bundle the most common combinations: Growth (€279), Premium (€379), and Ultimate (€579) — always cheaper than buying the services separately. Compare formation packages →
