AML compliance software for firms in Waterford
Waterford’s solicitors’ firms, accountancy practices and estate agents serve clients across the south east — property transactions, family businesses, farms and a growing employer base. Every one of those firms is a designated person under the CJA 2010, and every one faces the same date: 10 July 2027, when the EU AMLR replaces the framework their AML policies were written for. The changes are concrete — a €10,000 CDD threshold, an EU-wide cash cap, prescribed compliance roles, harmonised beneficial-ownership rules — and they apply directly, with no Irish transposition to wait for. CompliDesk Ireland gives a Waterford firm a straightforward, guided path to being ready well ahead of the deadline.
Designated persons in Waterford we’re built for
The AMLR calls them “obliged entities”; Irish law has called them “designated persons” since the CJA 2010. Whatever the label, if your Waterford firm is on this list, the new rulebook applies to you from 10 July 2027.
Accountants & tax advisers
Practices across Waterford city and county — supervised by your accountancy body, or by the AMLCU if you belong to no designated body. The AMLR means a real refresh of your BWRA and CDD procedures.

Conveyancing, probate and commercial work across the south east sits in AML scope; the Law Society of Ireland supervises, and your policies need rebuilding against Regulation (EU) 2024/1624.

Waterford agents and auctioneers are PSRA-licensed and PSRA-supervised — with the AMLR’s €10,000 occasional-transaction CDD threshold and cash rules applying from 10 July 2027.

Regulation (EU) 2024/1624 applies directly across the EU — the same rules in Waterford as in every other member state, with no Irish transposition to wait for. The headline changes:
