Capita Business Support Services Ireland, trading as Eircode, assigns Eircodes to new property addresses using a valid postal address and verified geo-locations. An Post collects information on all new and existing buildings, as well as changes to existing addresses and Tailte Éireann (formerly Ordnance Survey Ireland) solely provide the geo-locations (latitude and longitude) for all these buildings. An Post GeoDirectory (APG), a subsidiary company of An Post and Tailte Éireann, issue a new release of database files monthly to Capita in accordance with their revised licence agreement.

Capita have advised my officials that they have been in direct contact with the property owner who verified that they have received an Eircode Notification Letter and using the online Eircode Finder (www.eircode.ie) the Eircode correctly locates their property and the address details are correct.
