Can I form a company in Ireland remotely?
The whole incorporation process can be conducted remotely. No travel is necessary. Notarization of documents is necessary.

A Power of Attorney (POA) from (all) partners/shareholders is needed;
The POA is sent to you by us based on the services you want;
You have to certify the POA by a notary and, in some cases, legalize it by apostille (some countries need full legalization);
Once you have the POA on you, we double-check, and you send us the original form (physical document!) via courier to our address;
Ireland is part of the Hague Convention of the Apostille.
