The Companies Registration Office (CRO) has significantly increased automated enforcement actions against non-compliant companies in Ireland, stepping from 506 involuntary strike-offs in 2025 to 3,000 in 2026, targeting up to 1,000 companies weekly to clear a backlog created during the pandemic.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Govtech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Company founders in Ireland face a surge in compliance enforcement with thousands of non-compliant peers removed rapidly. You must urgently review your CRO filings or risk involuntary strike-off this year.
