Visa Ireland

Visa Ireland

Ireland is an EU country, but not a Schengen country. A Schengen visa therefore does not apply to Ireland. Whether you need a visa depends on your nationality. A Dutch residence permit does not automatically lift the visa requirement.

Dutch / EU passport

With a Dutch, EU, EEA or Swiss passport you typically do not need a visa for a short stay. No application with us.

Other nationality

Short-stay visa. We take the file to the consulate and collect it again. €91.50 excl. VAT + official visa €60 VAT-exempt. Consulate about 7 weeks on average.
