The advent of Eircode has so far been a fairly subdued affair.
Minister for Communications, Energy, and Natural Resources Alex White will officially launch the system later today.
Under Eircode, every house in Ireland will receive a unique seven-digit identificator (“postcode”).
You can check up your own at eircode.ie, the only caveat being that there is a limit of 15 searches per day, to curtail “commercial use.”
