Regulated Professions in Ireland

A regulated profession is one where access to or practice of a profession is restricted to those who meet the professional qualifications required by law. The European Union's Regulated Professions Database was developed to pinpoint the different regulations required across the EU. You will find a full list of the regulated professions in Ireland here, with a reference to the competent authority.
