    For me the search bar on eircode.ie has been returning an error for the past few days regardless what eircode I enter.
    I also cannot find map by which to search for eircodes.

    Are any alternative search tools available?

    Always works for me.

    You sure you have the right eircode?

    Same.



    Maybe OP should try a different browser, or different device

    Try clear your cache or try another browser. Working fine from here.

    If you are looking for an alternative the Autoaddress app is good - converts address to eircodes or eircodes to address's, whatever you need, then put's on a map for you.

    Searches are limited to 15 a day. Might have to have an account after that

    Working for me there. I would suspect a device-end error and suggest clearing cache.

    Another option to check if the Eircode is correct would be to to put in to www.a-b.ie However, it won't give you an Eircode if you only have the address.

    I think that has been increased. I think sometimes it allows me about 50.

    You can use Google Maps as well, searching for an Eircode will take you to the address

    Esri geocode services also understand eircodes so you can use the map at ArcGIS.com or the service itself directly. There are no practical limits for non-commercial use.
