Amazon set to launch in Ireland in 2025

What’s happening?

Amazon is set to expand into Ireland with the launch of Amazon.ie in 2025. 

This will offer a localised marketplace for Irish customers who are already shopping on other regional marketplaces such as Amazon.co.uk, as well as faster shipping options. 

The launch of Amazon.ie will mean that Irish customers will have even more choice and convenience when it comes to shopping on one of the world’s biggest online ecommerce platforms. 

More than 1000 SMEs (small to medium enterprises) already sell on the Amazon Marketplace – why not get ready to join them?

Ready to get started in Ireland?

If you’re looking to start selling on Amazon.ie once it launches, you’ll need to make sure that you are fully compliant with local regulations.

The most basic tax requirement is getting an Irish VAT number – you’ll need this in order to store any inventory in Ireland. 

But why wait until Amazon.ie launches? 

Did you know that there is also a great reason to apply for an Irish VAT number now?

Amazon already operates a fulfilment centre in Dublin, and both the UK and Irish markets are closely aligned.  Storing inventory in Ireland can even help support your sales on Amazon.co.uk. 

So, take the jump and get ready for your business expansion now!
