Non Resident directors

THE REQUIREMENT TO HAVE AN IRISH RESIDENT DIRECTOR IN ORDER TO INCORPORATE A COMPANY IS CHANGED TO REQUIRE A EEA RESIDENT DIRECTOR ONLY

The Companies Amendment Bill 2009 has been signed into law. Section 10 of the bill changes the requirement for an Irish resident director to a requirement for an EEA resident director. The EEA is all of the EU plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway.
