Amazon.ie has officially opened, bringing Irish customers access to over 200 million products with competitive pricing in Euro, along with fast and reliable delivery options. Customers can take advantage of One-Day Delivery on millions of items and enjoy a seamless shopping experience with transparent local pricing and no additional customs charges.
Additionally, Irish businesses—both small and large—will soon have a dedicated Brands of Ireland section, allowing customers to easily discover and support their favourite Irish brands. This initiative will help local businesses increase visibility and expand their customer base.
The launch of Amazon.ie isn’t just beneficial for Irish consumers and businesses—it also presents a valuable opportunity for sellers from the EU and beyond. By selling on Amazon.ie, international businesses can gain access to Ireland’s expanding e-commerce market, reach new customers, and strengthen their presence in Western Europe.
Why Choose Ireland for Your Amazon Business?
Ireland is a prime location for international sellers looking to expand in Europe. Here’s why:
- Gateway to the EU Market: Ireland provides easy access to the entire European Union, making it an ideal entry point for businesses looking to scale their operations.
- Business-Friendly Tax System: Ireland boasts a competitive corporate tax rate and a well-structured VAT system that supports international trade.
- English-Speaking Market: As the only fully English-speaking country in the Eurozone, Ireland simplifies communication and business transactions.
- Strong Digital Economy: With high internet penetration and a growing e-commerce culture, Ireland presents a lucrative opportunity for online sellers.
- Efficient Logistics & Infrastructure: Ireland offers advanced logistics, making shipping and fulfilment easier for Amazon sellers looking to provide fast and reliable deliveries.
- Postponed VAT Accounting Benefits: Ireland allows VAT-registered businesses to use Postponed Accounting, which means import VAT can be accounted for on VAT returns rather than being paid upfront. This improves cash flow and reduces financial strain on businesses importing goods into Ireland.
However, expanding to Amazon.ie comes with important tax responsibilities, particularly Value Added Tax (VAT) compliance. This is where Taxmatic can help.
