Non-Irish registered companies are obliged to comply with all provisions of the registered employment agreement, construction industry wages and conditions of employment, in respect of all employees when engaged in activities in the State to which the agreement applies.
The European Communities (Branch Disclosures) Regulations 1993, S.I. 393 of 1993, imposes an obligation on foreign registered companies who operate a branch in the State's jurisdiction to lodge with the registrar of companies certain details, such as name, address, directors details, etc. within one month of setting up such a branch. The branch must also nominate a person resident in Ireland who may accept the service of any processes or notices on behalf of the company and a person resident in Ireland who is to be responsible for compliance with the above regulations.
