With the introduction of the \"Roam-Like-At-Home-Principle\" you can surf at home prices throughout the EU. Hereby, the new roaming rules apply to both contract and prepaid rates. Restrictions apply to users who use mobile data, surf or text more than 90 days in other EU countries, and not just on occasional trips. If you are planning to move to Ireland for a longer period of time it is reasonable. In this case you can easily purchase an Irish SIM card from one of the main providers (O2, Vodafone and Meteor).<\/p>\n<p><strong>For international calls: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>-\u00a0<strong>From Ireland to the UK:<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>00 + 44 + city code + number of the correspondent.<br \/>\n-\u00a0<strong>From the UK to the Ireland:<\/strong>\u00a000 + 353 + number of the correspondent.<\/p>\n<p>The emergency dial is 112 (no area code needed) for all parts of Ireland.
