Our Services

Company Incorporation

We specialise in providing expert guidance and support for company incorporation in Ireland. Our team brings extensive experience in setting up different types of companies and company structures, including limited companies (Ltd), Designated Activity Companies (DAC), unlimited liability companies (ULC), and Companies Limited by Guarantee (CLG). We understand the intricacies of Irish corporate law and can assist you in making informed decisions.

Choosing the Right Business Structure

When it comes to establishing your business, selecting the appropriate company structure is a critical decision. At Crowley Corporate Services, we understand that choosing the right “type” of company in Ireland is essential for a successful start. With the introduction of the Companies Act 2014, there are a multitude of company types available, each with its own set of regulations and requirements.

Expertise Across Various Company Structures

Our team boasts extensive experience in setting up all types of companies and company structures, including but not limited to:

Limited Companies (Ltd): This popular choice offers limited liability for its shareholders, providing protection for personal assets.
Designated Activity Companies (DAC): DACs are suited for businesses with specific objectives and activities, each clearly defined in their constitution.
Unlimited Liability Companies (ULC): ULCs have no limit on their members’ liability, making them suitable for certain business scenarios.
Companies Limited by Guarantee (CLG): CLGs are often chosen by non-profit organisations, offering limited liability for their members.

Re-Registration of Company Type

In some cases, it becomes necessary for a company to change its “type.” This could involve transitioning from limited liability to unlimited liability or vice versa. Alternatively, you may require your company to be re-registered as a company limited by guarantee. Our services extend to drafting all the necessary company secretarial documents to facilitate this change. We take care of arranging for the relevant documents to be filed with the Companies Registration Office, ensuring a seamless transition while adhering to legal requirements.

Clarifying Legal Requirements

In addition to assisting you in choosing the right company structure, we also provide guidance on various aspects of company formation:

Directors’ Duties: We help clarify the responsibilities and duties of company directors, ensuring compliance with legal obligations.
Shareholders’ Obligations and Rights: Understanding the rights and obligations of shareholders is essential for smooth corporate governance.
Registered Office and Company Secretaries Duties: We provide insights into the requirements and responsibilities related to your company’s registered office and company secretary.

Non-Profit Incorporations

Many businesses in Ireland are formed for charitable purposes. Crowley Corporate Services is well-versed in the specific provisions surrounding non-profit incorporations. To achieve charitable exemption, a company’s constitution must comply with both the Companies Act 2014 and the Charities Act 2009.

For management companies tasked with overseeing properties on behalf of owners, specific provisions may be required to comply with the Multi-Unit Developments Act 2011. Whether you are establishing a non-profit, charity, or a management company, we ensure that all statutory provisions are meticulously complied with during the setup process.

Company Compliance

We understand that staying compliant with corporate regulations can be a challenging journey. Our Company Compliance services are designed to take the hassle out of these processes and ensure that your business adheres to all legal requirements in Ireland.

Annual General Meetings (AGMs)

Organising your Annual General Meeting (AGM) shouldn’t be a headache. AGMs involve a series of formalities, from notifying members and officers to dealing with proxies and corporate representatives. Our team specialises in making this process seamless. We’ll assist you in ensuring that all AGM documents are not just in order but also issued within the timeframes stipulated by the Companies Act 2014.

Extraordinary General Meetings (EGMs)

When extraordinary matters arise that require shareholder approval, Extraordinary General Meetings (EGMs) come into play. Whether it’s amending your company’s constitution or giving the green light to transactions mandated under the Companies Act 2014, EGMs demand precision. Our experts are here to draft impeccable documents and ensure that every requirement for approving vital resolutions is met.

Companies Registration Office Filings

Staying up-to-date with the Companies Registration Office (CRO) is crucial for your business. From filing annual returns (Form B1) to notifying the CRO about changes like a new registered office (Form B2), almost every change in your company requires a CRO filing. We handle this for you, meticulously drafting the necessary documents and ensuring they reach the CRO accurately and on time.

Whether it’s adjusting share rights, implementing a “golden share” structure, or managing the redemption or buyback of shares, we have the expertise to assist and guide you through these intricate processes. Our services include drafting essential company secretarial documents related to share allotments and transfers while ensuring that your company registers are meticulously updated.

Navigating Board Transactions

In nearly all circumstances, the board of directors holds the authority to steer a company’s course. Major management decisions are reached through board resolutions, making these transactions pivotal. Our team is well-versed in the formalities of calling and conducting board meetings. We offer expert advice on best practices and procedures, enhancing your company’s governance.

Crafting Your Company's Constitution

Your company’s constitution serves as the formal document governing its operations. With the introduction of the Companies Act 2014, limited companies now possess a single-document constitution. It’s imperative that your company’s constitution is tailored to facilitate efficient and seamless operations. At Crowley Corporate Services, we can draft a customised constitution to align with the specific needs and objectives of your company’s officers and shareholders.

Non-Resident Director Bonds

For businesses with non-resident directors involved in their operations, compliance with Irish regulations is paramount.

We ensure that your company meets all legal requirements, enabling non-resident directors to play a vital role while staying within the bounds of Irish corporate governance.
