Amazon is probably the best-known online store in the Western World. Sadly – there isn’t an Amazon.ie website specifically for Ireland (YET) . In the meantime, online shoppers in Ireland can still use the Amazon UK website and get almost everything delivered to Ireland.
If you are worried about extra VAT or duty charges since Brexit – 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 won’t deliver to Ireland.
So – If you do have problems finding what you want on Amazon Uk – you could try Amazon Germany (In English) . 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.

Prime membership does not get you free delivery from Amazon Germany
Amazon UK still offers Free delivery to Ireland for everyone on all orders over £20. This can take between 3 and 5 days.
Important: Only goods sold by Amazon fulfilled by Amazon are included in the offer of free delivery to Ireland on orders over £20. Don’t just assume your delivery will be free – check the final total before paying.
If your Amazon order is under £20 the following charges will apply for delivery to Ireland:
Books/ Music / DVD / Blu-ray / Video Games £4 per delivery
Other categories – £6 per delivery
If you want 2 day delivery to Ireland and you are not a Prime member – it will cost you £7.49 per delivery.
Amazon employs hundreds of staff in Ireland – in Dublin and Cork.
Amazon Ireland opened a massive warehouse in Dublin in August 2022 – so we expect even faster deliveries for all Irish Amazon Prime customers with deliveries on Sundays and many next-day deliveries for many items for Prime customers all over Ireland. There may soon be same-day delivery from Amazon in Ireland on some products. (mainly in Dublin)
