> EU id

There isn't one. Ireland also doesn't have a national ID program, so effectively for most people their passport or driver's license are the only forms of government ID they _might_ have. But even then it's not mandatory to have either.

"EU id" was a shortcut for "id documents issued by EU countries", they're valid EU-wide. It's an ID card in most EU countries and that's what would be used for the purposes of this article, except for Irish citizens I guess but they are probably a relatively small percentage of EU visitors of porn sites.

Now I just noticed that although the subject is "most of the EU", this is an Irish site, so maybe they just didn't really take this into account.

You could use the PSC card I suppose. The union of driver license, passport and PSC probably covers most of the country.
