The Republic of Ireland have been fined for the 1916 centenary crest worn by the team in a friendly earlier this year.
Against Switzerland last March, the team wore a jersey which featured a crest commemorating the Easter Rising ahead of the centenary anniversary.
But Ireland was only charged for the display last month after a UK politician highlighted it in relation to the poppy row.
The English, Scottish, Wales and Northern Irish national displayed the Remembrance Day poppy at their games last month, despite the FIFA rule forbidding countries to display any political symbols.
MP Damian Collins wanted to know why Ireland had not been punished for their display of a political symbol.

Well Collins will be happy today, because Ireland have been fined roughly €4,669 by FIFA.
“The Republic of Ireland has been fined CHF 5,000 for the display of a political symbol on the shirt during the Republic of Ireland v. Switzerland friendly match,” the report reads.
However, the fine is small change compared to those imposed on England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Fifa fine England £35,000, Wales and Scotland £15,500, Northern Ireland £12000 for displaying poppies during games.

The FAI have yet to comment on the fine imposed by FIFA.
