VAT registration

Before applying for a VAT number, it is crucial to determine whether your business requires one. VAT registration is generally not necessary to start a new business in Ireland, except under specific conditions. Your business must meet certain criteria before applying VAT to your products or services.

Keep in mind that sole traders and limited companies may be eligible for VAT registration. If you decide that your business needs to register for VAT, we recommend consulting with an accountant, as VAT registration can add administrative work to your business.

To apply for a VAT number in Ireland, you typically need to provide the following:

  • Proof of necessity
  • Business activity in Ireland
  • Invoices from Irish suppliers and customers
  • Information about the residence of directors
  • Physical office address

Supporting documents may include contracts, business plans, bank statements, and other relevant records.
