Car insurance price for full EU licence vs Irish licence

    Hi,

    As a french citizen living and driving / cycling in Ireland for 8 years I wonder why wherever I look for car insurance I have to pay higher because my license wasn't delivered by Ireland. I have had no claim (other than my car being broken into 4 years ago), a normal car, I hold my licence for 10 years, I was a named driver in France and never had a claim there either, I am over 25 and I can see my insurance still costs an additional couple of hundred euros higher than if I was holding an Irish license.

    Is there any particular reason or just a way for insurance to get more money whenever they can?

    Thank you for the recommendation, this is my first thread on boards.ie. How can I move the thread to the insurance forum?

    You can't move threads yourself.

    OK I have duplicated the thread under the "Banking & Insurance & Pensions" Forum. I can't copy the link here as I'm too new on the boards.ie so for those interested it you may search it with the same title.
