Outsourced bookkeeping and compliance for Irish accountants.

Outsourced bookkeeping for Irish accountants is a smaller market than the UK or the US, and most providers treat Ireland as an afterthought with UK forms renamed. We do not. Irish practices get accountants trained on Revenue returns, Irish payroll and the pay and file calendar, working in your software and handing back files that are ready for a partner to review and submit on ROS.

What we prepare for Irish practices

Bookkeeping and management accounts

Bank and credit card reconciliations, debtors and creditors ledgers, accruals and prepayments, and monthly or quarterly management accounts in Xero, QuickBooks or Sage. Files are kept current so that VAT returns and year-end accounts start from clean books.

VAT3 returns

Bi-monthly, four-monthly or annual VAT3 returns with reconciliation to the bookkeeping, reverse-charge and intra-EU treatment, and the annual Return of Trading Details prepared for your review before you file on ROS.

Corporation Tax (CT1)

CT1 computations with capital allowances, loss relief and close company surcharge workings, prepared in your tax software with a review note, in time for the deadline nine months after the year end.

Income Tax (Form 11)

Form 11 returns for sole traders, landlords, directors and investors, including preliminary tax calculations, prepared from the records you hold. Seasonal capacity for Form 11 season is booked from August so that returns are ready well ahead of 31 October and the ROS extension in November.

Payroll

PAYE, PRSI and USC calculations, the real-time payroll submissions your software generates under PAYE Modernisation, benefit-in-kind, and the statutory payments and leave your clients' staff are entitled to. Prepared each pay period for your approval in your payroll software.

Year-end accounts

Statutory financial statements under FRS 102 and FRS 105 as applied in Ireland, with the abridged or full formats your clients file, and annual return preparation ready for your CRO submission.

Who this is for

Irish practices that are busy for eleven months of the year and impossible for the twelfth. Firms that have lost a bookkeeper and cannot replace them. Practices with a growing book of sole traders and landlords whose Form 11s arrive all at once. If you are turning away work in Dublin, Cork, Galway or anywhere else because of hands rather than clients, this is for you.

How an Irish job runs

You send the job through your software or secure transfer. We confirm scope and the return date. An accountant prepares the work to your templates. A second accountant reviews it against a checklist for that return type. You receive the completed work and one list of queries. The full process is on the how it works page.

Your software, your ROS access

Xero, QuickBooks Online and Sage for bookkeeping, plus your Irish accounts production, tax and payroll software. We log in under access you grant and can revoke, with two-factor authentication. Submissions to Revenue and the CRO are made by your practice under its own agent credentials and TAIN.

E-commerce sellers and Irish EPR

For online sellers trading into Ireland we handle VAT and EORI registration and Ireland's Extended Producer Responsibility registrations for packaging and batteries, alongside monthly bookkeeping that reconciles marketplace settlements and the VAT3 returns that follow. For sellers based in the UK or US we coordinate with the work our UK and US teams already do for them.

What stays with you

The client relationship, the engagement letter, the review, the signature and the ROS submission. Bramwell Global never contacts your clients and never appears on anything they receive. The security page sets out the NDA, Data Processing Agreement and EU Standard Contractual Clauses that back that up.
