Important Notice
Enclosed is the certificate of incorporation for your company. This is a very important document - please keep it safe.
Also enclosed are information booklets on the duties of a Company Secretary and of Company Directors. Please read thesebooklets carefully. If they are not enclosed please contact your company formation agent, where such an agent acted for you. If you
dealt directly with the CRO, please contact New Companies Section. (Ph: (01) 8045384, (01) 8045478, (01) 8045381)
SIX MONTHS FROM THE DATE OF ITS INCORPORATION, YOUR COMPANY WILL HAVE ITS FIRST ANNUAL
RETURN DATE (ARD), being 20-May-2019.
This means that your company is required to file its first annual return (Form B1) made up to this date and to deliver it to theCRO correctly and on time. The first annual return cannot be made up to a date earlier or later than the first ARD. No financial
statements are required to be filed with this first annual return. The Form B1 must be delivered to the CRO not later than 28 days after
your company's ARD. Otherwise, a late filing penalty of €100 will become due with effect from day 29, followed by a daily default
penalty of €3. From I June 2017 the B1 form must be filed electronically, including electronic payment of the filing fee using aCredit/Debit Card or CRO Customer Account. Your company is advised to familiarise itself with the online process ahead of the ARD see the CRO website at https://www.cro.ie/Annual-Return/Filing-ElectronicallyIn future years, your company's ARD, being the latest date to which its annual return (accompanied by accounts) may be made up, willbe the anniversary of the effective date of its annual return for the preceding year. Please note that the accompanying accounts may
predate the effective date of the company's annual return by no more than nine months. Your company has 28 days from its ARD (orwhere its second or subsequent annual return is made up to a date earlier than its ARD, 28 days from that earlier date) in every year tolodge its annual return and accounts with the CRO, before it becomes liable to the late filing penalty, as above. Normally company
accounts must be audited, however, where certain conditions are satisfied a company may avail of an exemption from this audit (seeInfo Leaflet 10). N.B One of these conditions is that the annual return must be filed on time, in the year in which an exemption
is claimed and in the preceding year. So, if an annual return is filed late the company loses its right to the audit exemption not
only for the year in question but the next year also.
ALL COMPANIES MUST AFFIX A SIGN WITH THEIR NAME IN FULL AT THE ADDRESS OF THEIR REGISTERED OFFICE
