Doing business through an Ireland PEO / EOR
Getting onboard with the Republic of Ireland’s business opportunities can be a bit tricky, post-Brexit. Traditionally, foreign-owned entities have been prominent in their economy. For 2018, they comprised fourteen of the top 20 companies, with companies like Apple, Oracle, and Pfizer paying more than half of the country’s Corporation Taxes.
Clearly, the knowledge economy is a big draw for entities looking for a new overseas market base. Before taking on the complicated tax laws and mandatory employment contracts required, it’s become common to work with a locally-based Ireland PEO (Professional Employer Organization).
Why rely on an Ireland PEO?
For many businesses, the delay involved with the initial set-up and hiring process can cause a bottleneck in productivity. One might argue that the type of services involved in Ireland’s most active business segments demand constant innovation and output. Rather than waiting out the delays, a PEO or EOR (Employer of Record) can help new businesses push ahead, as they hire employees and administer payroll and HR functions. By contracting employees via a PEO/EOR, an overseas company can run their operation and test the market – without setting up a legal entity. We’ve listed the top PEO rankers in Ireland below.

Fortune 500 companies trust Shanghai-based NHGP with their Ireland PEO services, and there is no wonder given the company’s ability to hire top talent across Ireland within a matter of days.
