Ireland
Section 151 Decides What Goes in Your Footer
Irish companies have to disclose a defined set of details in their communications, and the Companies Act 2014 puts websites squarely inside that: the full company name and legal form, the registered office address, the CRO registration number, and the place of registration. If you choose to mention share capital at all, it has to be the issued capital that is paid up. The e-commerce regulations implementing Directive 2000/31/EC add your VAT number where registered and, for regulated professions such as accountancy practices and law firms, the details of the relevant supervisory body. One item that should now be coming off Irish sites rather than going on: the mandatory link to the EU Online Dispute Resolution platform, which was discontinued under Regulation (EU) 2024/3228 with complaints stopping in March 2025.
Ireland Put Criminal Penalties in Its Accessibility Regulations
The European Accessibility Act was transposed here by S.I. 636 of 2023 and applied from 28 June 2025, with WCAG 2.1 Level AA as the technical benchmark. What makes the Irish implementation stand out among member states is the penalty structure. On summary conviction, a fine up to €5,000 or up to six months’ imprisonment. On indictment, up to €60,000 or 18 months. Directors, managers, secretaries and other officers can be personally liable where the company commits an offence. Consumers can bring actions in the Circuit Court, and interest groups can support those claims, which opens a route to public-interest litigation of the kind that followed GDPR.
Enforcement Is Remediation-First, Which Changes the Urgency
Before anyone reads those numbers and panics: the authorities work on a notice-first model. You get told, you get a defined period to fix it, and escalation follows only if you ignore it. Nobody is being prosecuted over a missing alt attribute. The CCPC is the market surveillance authority for in-scope products, with services split across sector regulators — ComReg for telecoms, the Central Bank for financial services, the National Transport Authority for transport ticketing, Coimisún na Meán for audiovisual media. The practical read is that this is a real obligation with a slow fuse, and the sensible response is to fix contrast, alt text and keyboard operation during your next design pass rather than as an emergency.
The Micro-Enterprise Exemption Is Narrower Than It Sounds
Under ten employees and under €2 million turnover exempts you from the EAA’s service requirements, and the CCPC’s own microenterprise guidance confirms it covers a large share of Irish businesses. The exemption does not extend to products — if you manufacture, import or distribute a covered physical product, the accessibility requirements apply whatever your size. And the Equal Status Act sits underneath all of it regardless. Census 2022 recorded around 22% of people in Ireland reporting a long-lasting condition or difficulty, so a site that locks out assistive technology is turning away a meaningful part of the market before the legal question even arises.

Questions, Answered Directly
Full company name and legal form, registered office address, CRO number and place of registration under section 151 of the Companies Act 2014, plus VAT number where registered under the e-commerce regulations. A footer link to a legal information page is the usual arrangement.
No. That platform was discontinued under Regulation (EU) 2024/3228 and stopped taking complaints in March 2025. Old ODR links are a leftover worth clearing out during any content review.
If you provide covered digital services and have fewer than ten employees with turnover under €2 million, the service requirements do not apply. That exemption covers services only — products are treated differently, and the Equal Status Act applies either way.
On penalties, the Irish regulations are unusual in providing for criminal conviction and imprisonment alongside fines, and in exposing company officers personally. Enforcement in practice starts with a notice and a remediation period. Treat this as background information rather than legal advice on your own position.
