Company Secretarial Services for Your Business

Our expert accounting, corporate governance, and secretarial services go beyond compliance, providing the trust and clarity you need to confidently manage your business and focus on what you do best.

Virtual Office

Use our Dublin 2 address as your professional business and registered office.

Our expert accounting, corporate governance, and secretarial services go beyond compliance, providing the trust and clarity you need to confidently manage your business and focus on what you do best.

Here's what you get:

  • A Dublin 2 business address at 71 Baggot Street Lower, usable as both your registered office address and your business correspondence address.

  • Same-day post scanning. All mail received is opened, scanned, and forwarded to your email on the day it arrives.

  • Secure shredding on request. Unwanted post is destroyed securely rather than piling up or being left in a shared space.

  • In-person collection available. If you'd prefer to pick up physical copies, our Dublin office is open Monday to Friday, 9am to 1pm and 2pm to 5pm.

  • Optional physical forwarding. We can post your mail to any address, in Ireland or internationally, with postage costs passed on at cost.

Company Secretary Maintenance

Stay fully compliant with CRO requirements through our ongoing secretary support.

Our expert accounting, corporate governance, and secretarial services go beyond compliance, providing the trust and clarity you need to confidently manage your business and focus on what you do best.

In practice, this includes:

  • Filing annual returns (Form B1) with the Companies Registration Office (CRO) within 56 days of the company's Annual Return Date.

  • Maintaining statutory registers: the register of members, directors, secretaries, and beneficial owners.

  • Keeping minutes of board meetings and general meetings.

  • Ensuring the CRO is notified of any structural changes, such as director appointments, changes to the registered office, or share transfers.

  • Co-signing the annual return alongside a director (the same person cannot sign as both).

  • Coordinating with the Register of Beneficial Ownership (RBO) to ensure up-to-date filings.

Company Formation Ireland

Register your Irish company quickly with expert guidance.

Our expert accounting, corporate governance, and secretarial services go beyond compliance, providing the trust and clarity you need to confidently manage your business and focus on what you do best.

Here is what you will need to provide:

  • Company name. It must be distinguishable from any name already on the CRO register. We check this for you before any paperwork is submitted.

  • At least one director. You'll need their full name, date of birth, residential address, nationality, occupation, and details of any other directorships held. A PPSN is also required.

  • A company secretary. This cannot be the same person as the sole director. Many of our clients use Kinore's company secretarial service to fulfil this requirement.

  • At least one shareholder (subscriber). Name, address, and details of their shareholding.

  • A registered office address in Ireland. This is where all official correspondence from the CRO will be sent.

  • A company constitution. For an LTD company, this is a single document containing the articles of association, in compliance with the Companies Act 2014.

  • A NACE code. This classifies the principal activity of your company for CRO records.

Professional Minute Taking

Get accurate, impartial minutes recorded for your board meetings or AGMs.

Our expert accounting, corporate governance, and secretarial services go beyond compliance, providing the trust and clarity you need to confidently manage your business and focus on what you do best.

Professional minute taking is particularly valuable for:

  • Annual General Meetings (AGMs): Shareholder meetings carry formal statutory requirements. The record must capture all resolutions passed, votes, and decisions made.

  • Board meetings: Directors' meetings are a legal requirement under the Companies Act 2014. The minutes must name all attendees, record all resolutions, and be signed by the chairperson.

  • Investor and fundraising meetings: When third parties are in the room, an accurate, independent record protects everyone.

  • Meetings involving formal resolutions: Approval of accounts, changes to authorised signatories, major expenditure decisions. These require precise documentation, not a rough summary.

  • Sensitive internal discussions: When the subject matter means that the person most capable of writing the record has a clear conflict of interest in doing so.

Voluntary Strike-Off

Close your Irish company properly with our managed strike-off service.

Our expert accounting, corporate governance, and secretarial services go beyond compliance, providing the trust and clarity you need to confidently manage your business and focus on what you do best.

When is strike-off the right option?

  • The company has ceased trading or never commenced trading.

  • All debts and liabilities have been cleared.

  • All CRO annual returns are up to date, with any late filing fees and penalties paid.

Named Company Secretary

Appoint Kinore as your company’s official named secretary.

Our expert accounting, corporate governance, and secretarial services go beyond compliance, providing the trust and clarity you need to confidently manage your business and focus on what you do best.

When Kinore is appointed as your named company secretary, we take on the formal role at CRO level:

  • Kinore is registered as company secretary on your company's public record with the CRO.

  • We co-sign and file your annual return (Form B1) each year within the required 56-day window after your Annual Return Date (ARD).

  • We monitor your filing deadlines proactively, so you're never relying on memory or a calendar reminder you set three years ago.

  • We act as the statutory point of contact for CRO correspondence related to the annual return.

Irish Branch Registration

Register your overseas company as a branch in Ireland to expand into the EU.

Our expert accounting, corporate governance, and secretarial services go beyond compliance, providing the trust and clarity you need to confidently manage your business and focus on what you do best.

As a practical guide:

  • Choose a branch if you want a fast, lower-cost Irish presence with unified management, and you are comfortable with the parent's accounts being publicly filed in Ireland.

  • Choose a new Irish company if you want legal separation, operational independence, or plan to scale the Irish entity significantly over time.

  • Seek advice first if your situation involves tax residency questions, holding structures, or ongoing Revenue queries. The choice carries lasting consequences.
