Visa Requirements for Ireland Citizens

An Irish passport opens almost every border in the world, and uniquely lets you live and work across both the EU and the United Kingdom. For the handful of countries that still ask for an eVisa or eTA, we prepare it online, check every detail and email back the approval.

About Ireland Passport

The Irish passport is one of the most powerful in the world, ranked around Top 5 on the Henley Passport Index, with visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to roughly 190 destinations. Irish citizens also hold a rare double advantage: full EU freedom of movement, plus the right to live and work in the United Kingdom under the Common Travel Area.

Only a small group of countries still ask Irish travellers for an online eVisa or eTA - and those are exactly the ones we handle for you. Wherever you travel, keep your passport valid for at least six months from your arrival date.

Regional travel for Ireland

Read the travel policy details for Ireland

Ireland and the United Kingdom share the Common Travel Area, so Irish citizens can live, work and travel in the UK with no visa and no UK ETA - the one EU nationality that skips the UK Electronic Travel Authorisation entirely. Photo ID is enough to cross between the two.

Although Ireland sits outside the Schengen Area by choice, Irish citizens keep full EU freedom of movement: you can live, work and travel across the bloc on your passport or national identity card. And because you are an EU citizen, you never need ETIAS for Europe - it applies only to non-EU visitors.
