What’s in it for you?
The perks of a Personal Service Company? You keep more of what you earn, set your own salary, and take control of your finances.
It’s a smart way to save for quiet periods, invest in assets, and take advantage of extra tax planning and wealth management opportunities, all while claiming more expenses.
When should you consider other options?
A Personal Service Company may not be ideal if you’re earning less than €400 a day, on a short contract, or need something set up quickly.
It also involves higher fees and a bit more admin, so if you’d rather keep things simple and let us guide you, an Umbrella Company may be a better fit.

Personal Service Company FAQs
A Personal Service Company is your own limited company, giving you complete control over your finances, tax planning, and business decisions. It’s ideal for long-term contractors who want flexibility and maximum tax efficiency. You can retain profits, spread salary, claim more expenses, and even buy company assets. It does come with extra setup and compliance responsibilities, but for career contractors, the benefits make it worth it.
