This page provides streamlined guidance for the disposal of records common to Departments of State that do not warrant permanent preservation as archives. Please review the guidance notes and apply for disposal using the relevant application form.
During our closure for the annual media preview this week, our Genealogy Advisory Service is paused. To avoid a backlog, please hold off on sending genealogy queries to query@nationalarchives.ie. Normal service resumes Monday, 8 December at 10am.
