Ogier Leman and Brexit 

With the  arrival of Brexit and more and more international investors and businesses looking to Ireland to invest, establish or relocate their businesses here, we at Ogier Leman are here to help. Our International Committee members work together across our specialist sectors, as well as with our network of key professional advisors, offering tailored expert advice to international businesses. We offer full-service assistance to international clients helping them transition into a post-Brexit world, allowing them to continue to carry out their businesses without interruption

Ireland has been named as the “best country for business” by a number of ranking publications over the years as well as Forbes. Ireland has long been a destination of choice for many foreign companies and this is due to a number of key factors, namely:

• Our membership of the EU and the Euro
• A pro-business environment and supportive regime for startups
• A young, English speaking and well-educated workforce
• Post-Brexit, Ireland is the only English speaking country in the EU
• A common law jurisdiction with a strong legal system
• A favourable low taxation system with a corporate tax rate of 12.5%
• An extensive double taxation treaty arrangement

We advise international clients on all aspects of establishing in Ireland.
