Yes, you are likely to qualify for an IELTS waiver for Master's programs in Ireland, the Netherlands, and New Zealand, given your strong academic background and a previous degree taught in English.

- Many universities in these countries accept a Medium of Instruction (MOI) letter as proof of English proficiency if your prior degree was fully taught in English.
- Waiver policies are university- and program-specific and may require additional documents, such as transcripts or detailed course descriptions.
- Your high grades and lack of backlogs further strengthen your application.

For the best chance, ensure your MOI letter is official and meets each university’s requirements.
