I'm still new at all this. I just found out I have Irish roots from my paternal great grandmother's side. So I would like to ad an "Irish" tartan to my wanted list.
Yes. To be an "official" tartan, they would need to be recognised by some sort of governmental authority; in the case of the Irish National Tartan, it would be the Irish government. That doesn't mean it has any less meaning to someone with Irish heritage, just that it is not officially recognized.
