If your company is liable to corporation tax, you will need to register your company with the Revenue Commissioners.

The benefits of trading through an Irish limited company has never been greater. The advantages of structuring your business this way are:

• Limited liability – this protects your personal assets should things go wrong.
• Low Irish tax rates – 12.5% on trading profits.
  
• Improved cashflow due to lower tax rates.
  
• Choice over how and when you pay yourself, a self employed business persons profit is taxed on them personally, regardless of how much money they take out of the business.
