Frequently asked

Common pricing questions

Are these prices fixed or can they vary?

All monthly plan prices shown are starting prices based on typical transaction volumes. Your final monthly fee is confirmed during onboarding once we've reviewed your records and understood the scope of work. We don't charge surprise fees — everything is agreed in writing before we start.

Do the monthly plans include VAT returns?

Yes — VAT return preparation and filing with Revenue is included in all monthly plans, provided your business is VAT-registered in Ireland. OSS (EU One-Stop Shop) reporting is included in the E-Commerce plan. UK VAT is treated separately.

What does the formation fee include?

The €250 + VAT formation fee covers full CRO registration, constitution drafting, share allotment, director appointments, certificate of incorporation, and 12 months of registered office service. Revenue registration (tax & VAT) is included. Government CRO filing fees are separate and passed through at cost.

What is a Section 137 bond and do I need one?

Under Irish company law, every Irish limited company must have at least one EEA-resident director. If none of your directors are EEA residents, a Section 137 insurance bond is required. This is arranged separately and typically costs €1,500–€2,000 per year, paid directly by the client to the insurance provider. We'll guide you through the process during formation.

Is historical cleanup or backlog work included?

No — historical backlog and catch-up bookkeeping is scoped and quoted separately from your ongoing monthly plan. This ensures you only pay for what's actually needed to bring your records up to date. We'll review your position and provide a clear written quote before starting any remedial work.

How quickly can Forti get my company set up?

Standard Irish company formations are typically completed within 3–5 business days of receiving all required documentation and AML/KYC clearance. Non-EEA formations with a Section 137 bond may take slightly longer depending on bond processing. We'll keep you updated at every step.

Can I start with formation and add accounting later?

Absolutely. Many clients begin with company formation and then transition into a monthly accounting and compliance plan once trading begins. We'll onboard you at whichever stage makes sense for your business. There are no lock-in periods and no penalties for changing your plan.

Are all prices shown inclusive of VAT?

No — all prices displayed on this page are exclusive of VAT. Irish VAT at 23% is applied to all Forti services. If your business is VAT-registered, you may be able to reclaim input VAT on our fees. Please consult your tax advisor or ask us during onboarding.
