    There's some information here. I'm sure the process with insurance companies is the same but may be a bit more expensive. If I were you, I would contact your DMV back home and get a report of how long you've had a license and your driving history (if its worth it) to give to the insurance.

    A bit .... Its crazy expensive .. Insurance companies in Ireland wont even accept a NCB from another EU Country let alone the US :(

    Try Quinn direct as you'll be starting out with 0 years no claims in Ireland
