PPS Number Requirement for Non-Resident Directors of Irish Limited Companies

If you are a director of an Irish Limited Company, you are legally required to obtain a Personal Public Service (PPS) number. A PPS number is a unique identification number used for Irish tax, social welfare, and legal compliance, similar to a Social Security Number in other countries. The format includes seven digits followed by one or two letters, and it was previously known as a PRSI number.

At SETUPYOURCOMPANY, we specialize in assisting non-resident company directors with the PPS number application process. Our team can apply for your PPS number on your behalf, ensuring a fast and efficient turnaround.

⚠️ Important: This service is available only to non-Irish residents. If you are an Irish resident, you must apply directly through the Department of Social Protection.

A PPS number is essential for:

• Proprietary directors of Irish companies
• Individuals receiving income from Irish sources

Please note that you must have a PPS number if you are a non-resident director and wish to take a salary from an Irish Limited Company.
