List of Garda districts

Map of garda divisions (as of January 2025)

Some areas of the Garda Síochána have been split into modified divisions and districts since the pilot of the new Garda Operating Model came into effect on Monday, 7 October 2019.[1] The rollout started with Galway, Cork City, Dublin South Central, Meath/Westmeath and Limerick and has continued since March 2020.[2] In the Dublin Metropolitan Region (DMR) each district is assigned a unique letter which are listed in the table below. Outside of the DMR, letters are assigned by division.
