    How long does it take for mail to arrive in Ireland?

    Posted from within Ireland.

    I think it was posted on Friday. But it never came today.

    Well if payment did not cover the cost of the parcel or large letter for example. It may be waiting in the sorting office for payment. No slip in the post box ?

    It's basically next working day delivery using standard Irish post. I send and receive things all the time for work and it's quite unusual to even wait 2 working days.

    No it won't!
    If that was the case it might get sent back to the sender:
    Chillax OP, you'll probably have it in the morning.

    Depends on where you posted it from, what time of the day you posted it, and so on.

    If you posted it on Friday afternoon, then it probably sat in a local post office over the weekend and arrived at the distribution centre today. It'll be with you tomorrow.

    It won't be unusual for it to come tomorrow? Is that normal if it was posted on Friday?

    Application form? By post? Can't you print it off or does it have special embossed security features or something?
