Most non-EEA nationals require a visa to travel to Ireland, although there a number of countries whose citizens do not require a visa to enter Ireland. If you are unsure whether you require a visa to travel to Ireland or not you can check here.
Whether you are a visa required person or not, Immigration officers at a port of entry can refuse you entry if they suspect that there is a problem. It is important that even if you do not require a visa that you have all the required documents and are prepared for an interview by an Immigration officer.
Our services include assisting in the preparation of documentation, information and can provide an introductory letter for entering Ireland. We can also provide phone assistance in the event of difficulties in a port or airport.
If you do require a visa you need to establish which type of visa is appropriate to your situation. There is a range of visas which are classed as either Short-Term (less than 3 months) or Long-Term (more than 3 months).
