Re: Foreign Birth Registration

Can anyone from the US weigh in on their experience with USPS and this new Landed Cost/Customs Fee? (A $24 fee that the recipient has to pay, not the sender) Will the FBR Office accept my mail envelope? reject it?

This is for USPS Priority Mail International.

It seems the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs has updated their website. Old website: https://www.dfa.ie/citizenship/born-abroad/registering-a-foreign-birth/ New website that the old one redirects you to: https://www.ireland.ie/en/dfa/citizenship/born-abroad/registering-a-foreign-birth/#Adult ...
