About Us
Serving immigrants, businesses and individuals across Ireland — in English and Portuguese.
Our mission
Our mission is to make Irish accounting and tax accessible to everyone — especially immigrants and newcomers navigating Revenue, the CRO, and Irish employment law for the first time. We combine bilingual support (English and Brazilian Portuguese) with technical expertise and a compliance-first approach.
Our story
ARAN Accounting was founded by Rafael Arantes, a Brazilian accountant based in Limerick, to give immigrants in Ireland the same quality of professional service as any Irish national — in their own language, at a price that makes sense. We combine technical accuracy with simple communication, proactive deadline reminders, and a privacy-first approach.
What you can expect
- Clear next steps and practical guidance
- Compliance-first approach and documented process
