The change is set to take effect by the end of the month.
President Biden played up the shared history and shared values of Ireland and the United States today.
It was the second day of his three-day visit.
The president addressed the Irish Parliament and paid tribute to American and Irish unity on key issues, including aid for Ukraine against Russian aggression.
JOE BIDEN, President of the United States: Ireland remembers what it means to have to flee home, leaving everything behind and begin again on foreign shores.

AMNA NAWAZ: Mr. Biden winds up his trip tomorrow.
Former President Trump gave a second deposition today in a lawsuit over his business practices in New York state.

The U.S. Senate will be asked next week to replace California Democrat Dianne Feinstein temporarily on the Judiciary Committee.
She made the request on Wednesday amid calls for her resignation.

Replacing her on the closely divided Judiciary panel would let action resume on federal judge nominees.
North Korea has fired another long-range missile, but this one may be something new.
The U.S., Japan and South Korea say the weapon may have been solid fueled, making it more mobile and harder to detect.
The launch drew sharp criticism from Japan, where officials initially ordered some people to take shelter.
HIROKAZU MATSUNO, Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary (through translator): This launch is an outrageous act that escalates the provocation against the entire international community.
North Korea's series of actions, including repeated launches of ballistic missiles, threatens peace and security.
It is absolutely unacceptable.
AMNA NAWAZ: The missile flew 600 miles and landed in the ocean between the Korean Peninsula and Japan.
In France, protesters staged a 12th round of strikes over plans to raise the retirement age to 64.

Tomorrow, France's constitutional council is to decide whether the retirement legislation passes legal muster.
Back in this country, inflation at the wholesale level eased sharply in March, falling to an annual rate of 2.7 percent.
That is down from 4.7 percent in February and the lowest in more than two years.
And, on Wall Street, the inflation news boosted hopes that the Federal Reserve will dial back interest rate hikes.
The Dow Jones industrial average gained 383 points, or 1 percent, to close at 34029.
The Nasdaq rose 2 percent.
The S&P 500 was up 1.3 percent.
And visionary fashion designer Mary Quant, sometimes called the mother of the miniskirt, has died at her home in Surrey, England.

Mary Quant was 93 years old.
