Just had a chat with a Pearson Vue customer service agent.It ended up that if i'm a no-English native speaker but i live in a English speaking country i'm not allowed for the extra 30 minutes:

"Thanks again for waiting, unfortunately since English is an official language in Ireland, you will not be able to receive this extra 30 minutes. I am sorry for this."

Online resources seems a little bit confusing:

Should i consider call the exam center and make an explicit request?

    Pearson Vue Customer Service is correct in that you are allowed 30 minute extension only if you are a non-native English speaker who is registering to take the exam in non-English speaking country. The test center has no authority over this accommodation and only Pearson Vue can approve this. This is based on my previous gig as a test proctor.

    How much is a Ryanair flight to Spain or Germany or somewhere? €40? If you have the cash, that is.
