Building your team in Ireland opens the door to EU opportunities. Traditionally, you need to establish a legal presence and set up an Ireland subsidiary to hire employees directly. Setting up a subsidiary means managing legal and administrative processes that can take time and slow your plans.
但G-P提供了一种替代方案。 在爱尔兰，我们不需要传统的子公司途径，而是可以加快您进入爱尔兰的速度--不需要新的实体--这样您就可以在几分钟内而不是几个月内开始招聘。
如何在爱尔兰设立子公司
在爱尔兰设立子公司的最常见方式是通过一家股份制私人有限公司，即 LTD。
对于跨国公司来说，这是一种常见的选择，因为母公司只需负责支付其股份的任何未付金额，而无需承担公司的其他债务。《公司法》 2014规定了有限公司的大部分法律要求。
在爱尔兰注册成立子公司的步骤
- Choose a company name: The company name must be unique and can’t be misleading. It must also be approved by the Companies Registration Office (CRO).
- Appoint a director: You must appoint at least one director. At least one director must be a resident of a European Economic Area (EEA) member state. Otherwise, you need a Section 137 bond of EUR 25,000 that’s valid for at least two years. All directors must provide a personal public service number (PPSN) or a verified identity number (VIN) for CRO registration.
- Appoint a company secretary: A company with one director must appoint a separate company secretary.
- Get a physical office address: A subsidiary must have a physical and registered office address in Ireland.
- Issue at least one share: An LTD doesn’t have a minimum share capital amount, but it’s mandatory for at least one share to be issued at incorporation.
- Create company constitution and file with CRO: A company constitution sets out the company’s rules. All documents are usually submitted electronically through the CRO’s companies online registration environment (CORE) portal.
- Get a certification of incorporation: Once the CRO approves the application and fee payment, they’ll issue a certificate of incorporation. This officially makes the subsidiary a legal entity, and takes 5–10 business days.
公司注册后，您还需要：
- Get a company seal: Every company must have an official stamp used to emboss documents.
- Register for taxes: Register with Irish Revenue for corporation tax, VAT, and employer taxes (PAYE/PRSI).
- Register beneficial ownership: Submit details of the company's beneficial owners to the Central Register of Beneficial Ownership (RBO). In Ireland, this is usually someone who owns or controls more than 25% of the company’s shares or voting rights, or who has significant control over the company.
- Open a bank account: A corporate bank account can take several days to a few weeks to set up.
爱尔兰附属法律和要求
公司法2014 规定了有限责任公司的几项要求，如
- Annual return: Companies must file an annual return with the CRO, including financial statements, by a deadline each year. Missing this deadline can lead to penalties or even deregistration.
- Taxation: Ireland has a standard 12.5% corporate tax rate. However, it has introduced the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD’s) “Pillar Two” rules. Now, multinationals with annual global revenues over EUR 750 million pay a minimum effective tax of 15%.
- Director and secretary roles: Irish law sets out the duties and responsibilities of directors and the company secretary. They can be held personally responsible if they don’t meet these responsibilities.
爱尔兰子公司的优势
- Limited liability: The parent organization is protected from any debts or legal actions directed at the Ireland entity.
- A subsidiary has its own management structure: This allows it to adapt to and align with local business culture and market conditions.
- Access to the EU market: An Ireland subsidiary gives you access to the EU market, making it easier to trade with other nations.
- Boosts credibility: A local entity can enhance your company’s reputation and credibility with customers, suppliers, and partners in Ireland and across Europe.
爱尔兰子公司的劣势
虽然在爱尔兰设立子公司具有明显的优势，但这一过程也面临诸多挑战，可能会延迟进入市场并引发高昂的成本：
- Time-consuming setup: Incorporation involves multiple legal and administrative steps, including name approval, director appointments, constitution drafting, and CRO filings. Processing can take several weeks or longer, especially during peak periods.
- High initial and ongoing costs: There are legal and incorporation fees, and if no EEA-resident director is appointed, a EUR 25,000 Section 137 bond is mandatory. Ongoing costs include accounting, annual audits (unless exempt), tax filings, and administrative overhead.
- 持续合规和责任：公司必须遵守《公司法》 2014 、年度申报表，以及（如果在范围内）经合组织第二支柱最低税收规则。不遵守规定可能导致巨额罚款，并追究董事的个人责任。
- 行政负担：管理工资、福利、所得税预扣制/PRSI 和监管合规需要专门的本地资源或外包，这可能会分散对核心业务的注意力。
- 银行办理延误：开设公司银行账户是必要的步骤，但由于文件和合规性检查，通常需要几天到几周的时间，这可能会延迟运营准备工作。
