Why does Ireland Not Have Uber?
Ireland does not have Uber primarily due to specific regulations in the country. Unlike elsewhere, Ireland’s laws demand that rideshare drivers, such as those driving for Uber, must possess a professional driving license.
This rule significantly restricts the number of people who can offer such services, especially those who might want to drive part-time. Hence, the Uber model of “anyone with a car can be a driver” doesn’t hold up in Ireland.
While you can still use the Uber app in Ireland, it operates differently, connecting riders with licensed taxis instead of private cars.
