Further registration information

Addresses

  • Business address: this is the address where the activities of the business are being conducted. An agent’s address is not sufficient as a business address. In addition, care-of addresses (c/o) are not acceptable.
  • Official address: for a company, the official address used must correspond to the Companies Registration Office (CRO) records.

NACE Code

Directors – NACE code 9806 should be used where either PAYE or directorship is the only source of income.  For all other types, the NACE code should indicate the main source of self-employed income.

Confirmation of application

Once an application has been signed and submitted, an electronic notice will be issued immediately confirming the application was received.  Confirmation of the registration status normally updates to the ROS profile within 3 days.
