International Qualifications Recognition
Have your international qualifications for gas or electrical work recognised so you can work in the Republic of Ireland.
EU Directive
The European Recognition of Professional Qualifications Directive (2005/36/EC) applies to eligible people holding qualifications from, or recognised by a member state. If you did not obtain your qualifications in a Member State, you can still apply.
If you hold relevant professional qualifications from outside the Republic of Ireland:
- you must have them recognised before you can apply for scheme registration
- applicants from EEA countries who meet full requirements will be prioritised
- applicants from non-EEA countries may encounter delays as they will not be the highest priority.
