Answer 1

You need two forms of ID and one needs to be a picture ID with an Ireland Address meaning you need some type of Ireland ID but all is not lost.

You can apply for an international drivers permit.  Not sure where you are from but if from the US it cost about 10.00 from AAA.  Then when you go to Ireland apply for a provisional driver's license.  Using your international driver permit.

It is a written test in Ireland and an Eye exam cost about $25.00 EURO.

Then when you get your provisional you can use it with passport to get a bank account.
