Cross Border Processes for Mergers, Conversion and Divisions

Please Note: This page does not relate to internal/Irish only company mergers, only Cross Border Mergers. Please visit Mergers and Divisions for details on internal Mergers.

Cross border Forms CBM1, CBC1, and CBD1 are all filed online on CORE.

All forms must be submitted to the CRO by close of business the Friday before the notice is due to appear in the CRO Gazette. This is to allow sufficient time for checking and processing.

The notice referred is the notice under Regulation 33 of the European Union (Cross-Border Conversions, Mergers and Divisions) Regulations 2023:

(6) Notice of the delivery of the common draft terms to the Registrar and the notice referred to in paragraph (1)(b) or, where paragraph (2) applies, the notice referred to in paragraph (3), shall be caused to be published – (a) by the Registrar in the CRO Gazette, and (b) by the company, in a national daily newspaper, at least 30 days before the date of the general meeting referred to in Regulation 35.
