THE DECISIONS THAT MATTER
Tax planning for business owners
From paying yourself and deciding whether to incorporate, to trading overseas, restructuring or selling a business, tax decisions need to be considered early. We explain the options, their implications and when specialist work is needed.
Exit and succession planning
Thinking about selling, stepping back or passing the business on? We review the tax questions around ownership, structure and timing before a transaction is agreed.
Group structures and intercompany transactions
Holding companies, reorganisations and transactions between related companies need a joined-up view. We identify the tax and transfer-pricing work required, then agree the scope and specialist input.
Director pay, dividends and pensions
Salary, dividends, director loans and pension contributions belong in the same conversation. We look at the company’s position and your personal tax objectives before recommending a route.
International teams and directors
Hiring overseas or a director moving country can raise payroll, residency and permanent establishment questions. We assess the Irish implications and agree the work needed in each jurisdiction.
Irish tax registration and cross-border VAT
Setting up in Ireland or selling into new markets? We help with Irish tax registrations and VAT obligations, including cross-border sales. Explore ecommerce accounting.
Sole trader or limited company?
Incorporation is not automatically the right tax decision. We assess profits, how much you need to draw personally, ongoing costs and the transfer of the existing business before recommending a structure. Compare sole trader and limited company.
Investment, R&D and business assets
We assess relevant tax questions around investment, EIIS, R&D claims and acquiring business assets. Eligibility, evidence and specialist project work are considered before a claim or commitment. Support for technology businesses.
Revenue queries and getting back on track
A Revenue query, overdue filing or inherited error needs clear ownership. We review the records, agree the response or correction work and help restore a dependable filing process.
Clear scope before the work starts. Complex planning, restructuring and cross-border projects are scoped separately from recurring compliance. We agree responsibilities, fees and any specialist involvement in advance.
What we handle
