What we see in Kilkenny
Kilkenny has an unusually high density of design, craft and hospitality businesses for its size. Both sectors are affected directly by the move of restaurant, catering and hot takeaway food and drink to the 9% VAT rate from 1 July 2026, and the work involved is in the till mapping rather than the return.
Whatever your sector, the engagement works the same way: a fixed monthly fee agreed in advance, a named chartered accountant assigned at onboarding, and every enquiry answered within four business hours.

Questions Kilkenny businesses ask
- Do you have an office in Kilkenny?
- No. Our office is at Marina House, Clarence Street, Dún Laoghaire, Co. Dublin. We serve Kilkenny businesses entirely online — secure document portal, cloud accounting and video calls — which is what keeps the fee fixed and lower than a local high-street practice.
- How much does an accountant cost for a Kilkenny business?
- We quote a fixed monthly fee based on your structure, turnover and which services you need. Every proposal is a fixed fee sent within 48 hours, so you know the cost before you commit and there are no hourly surprises.
- Can I switch to you from my current Kilkenny accountant?
- Yes, and it is routine. We write to your existing accountant for professional clearance and the handover records, and we handle the transfer. The best time to move is shortly after a year end, but it can be done at any point.
- Are you chartered accountants?
- Yes. Finlay Mulligan & Co. are Chartered Accountants, regulated by Chartered Accountants Ireland. We are not a bookkeeping agency, and the person on your account is a qualified accountant.
