What is Identification Registration Organisation?

In line with the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2023/1804), Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) has been appointed as Identification Registration Organisation (IDRO) by the Department of Transport for issuing and managing unique identification (ID) codes to identify, as a minimum, Charge Point Operators (CPOs) of publicly accessible recharging points and eMobility Service Providers (eMSPs). For more information visit our Frequently Asked Questions.

IDRO Registration Principles

The IDRO has adopted registration principles for CPOs of publicly available recharging points and eMSPs seeking to register and be issued with an IDRO ID. These IDRO Registration Principles are as follows:

  1. Entities seeking to register as a CPO or eMSP will be provided with an “IE” prefixed IDRO ID
  2. Entities seeking to register as both a CPO and an eMSP will be provided with a single “IE” prefixed IDRO ID.
  3. The IDRO Public register will identify entities registered as a CPO, an eMSP, or both.
  4. To be issued with an “IE” prefixed IDRO ID, CPOs / eMSPs operating, or intending to operate, publicly accessible recharging points in Ireland must provide a registered address in Ireland to support legal entity verification by TII.
  5. Where a CPO opts to use the data Exchange Platform, the IDRO Public register will identify the OCPI County Code and Party ID associated with the CPO’s Irish recharging points (where this is different to the “IE” prefixed IDRO ID as issued by TII)
