Do you still have to have an Ireland residency or address to reg them ?

I heard from a friend they can be a little strict so I never bothered with them, but if theres way around it (without breaking the rules) I'd possible use it, as I have alot of irish clients now

The rules have been relaxed to some degree over the last few years, but they're still quite strict

In order to register a .ie domain name you don't need an address in Ireland

However you would need to have a "link" with Ireland

So if you were exporting goods or services to Ireland, for example, you could qualify

Also the registry is very strict on who the registrant is ie. you cannot register the domain to yourself for a 3rd party beneficiary. So if you developed sites for clients and normally just registered domains without paying attention to who the registrant (holder) was you wouldn't get away with it

If you have any queries let me know, though I won't be near email for the next couple of days due to a personal matter that has just come up
