Amazon is probably the best-known online store in the Western World.
For many years , Irish customers mainly used the Amazon UK site.
Finally in March 2025 they opened up an Amazon.ie website specifically for Ireland .
reland finally got its own Amazon.ie website in March 2025 .
Any current login you have for Amazon UK will continue to work on any new Amazon.ie website.
It is early days yet – but the pricing on the Irish Amazon site seems to be generally more expensive than the UK Amazon site. We don’t see any good reason to switch to using the Amazon.ie site (for now)
Free “standard” delivery is available on Amazon.ie for non Amazon Prime members on orders above €25 and above €10 for books.
Orders under €25 will be charged €3.99 for standard delivery on Amazon.ie .
Priority delivery for non Amazon Prime members is €4.99 .
Amazon Prime on the Irish site is €6.99 a month (30 day free trial) – but it does not include free delivery for items bought on the UK site.
If you are worried about extra VAT or duty charges on Amazon UK – there is not a lot to worry about. If there are any extra charges, Amazon shows them at checkout. But it is probably best to try and stick to goods “sold by Amazon”

There are some items that Amazon UK won’t deliver to Ireland.
So – If you do have problems finding what you want on Amazon UK – you could try Amazon Ie or try Amazon Germany . The German Amazon site allows you to use the same login as the UK store. Unfortunately, there is no free delivery option on the German Amazon site. Also – you need to be aware that electrical goods sold on the German site will come with 2 pin EU plugs.
