Terms and Conditions

Last updated: 14 November 2026

AnnualReturns.ie is operated by The Startup Shop Limited, a licensed Trust or Company Service Provider (licence APP/1292/2021). These terms summarise how we provide the AnnualReturns.ie annual return filing service.

After you order, we confirm the service, the fixed fee and any extra work in writing before we start. If anything here differs from that confirmation, the written confirmation applies.

Annual return filing

  • Our fee is €119.99 + VAT for each annual return, plus the €20 CRO filing fee at cost. Dormant company accounts and B1 together are €299.99 + VAT, plus the CRO fee.
  • You or your accountant supply financial statements signed by a director. We don't audit or prepare trading accounts unless agreed separately.
  • We file within 2 working days of receiving the signed B1 and accounts. We can't be responsible for late filing where documents or signatures reach us too late to file by the deadline.
  • CRO late filing penalties are charged by the CRO and payable by the company.
  • The company's directors and secretary remain legally responsible for the annual return and its contents.

Fees and payment

  • Our fees are fixed and exclude VAT at 23%, unless a price is shown as including VAT.
  • Official fees, where they apply, such as CRO filing fees, are charged at cost or paid by the company, and are shown separately from our fees.
  • You don't pay when you order. We confirm the details and complete the identity checks, then send an invoice with a secure card payment link or bank transfer details. Work starts once that invoice is paid.
  • Yearly services renew each year. We remind you before renewal, and you can cancel before the renewal date.
  • Anything outside the service you ordered is quoted first. Nothing extra is charged without your agreement.

Your responsibilities

  • Give us complete and accurate information about the company and the people involved.
  • Make sure each director and beneficial owner completes our identity verification, which we're required to carry out under anti-money laundering law.
  • Sign documents promptly, so filings can be made on time.
  • Tell us about changes to the company that affect the service, such as new directors, shareholders or addresses.

Cancellations and refunds

  • If you cancel before we start work, we refund what you paid in full.
  • If you cancel after we start, we refund our fee less the cost of work already done and any third-party costs already incurred.
  • Official fees paid to the CRO, the RBO or Revenue are not refundable.
