    No.

    Provisional licenses do not carry over from one country to another.

    No rental on provisional as robinph said.

    Also be aware that most places require you to have had a full licence for 2 years and most won't rent to under 25s, and the ones that do add an extra loading.

    You not only can't rent , but you can not legally drive outside ireland .... and don't forget this is enforced in other countries...
