Applying Online - Countries where Online Facility Available - Supported Countries

Visa Online Application Facility – Supported Countries

Throughout 2008 we will be implementing a new computerised system which includes an Online Application facility.

This system will be introduced to all Irish Embassies, Consulates and Visa Offices on a phased basis.

Please check the countries listed below. If the country you are residing in, and are currently located, appears on this list, you must use the Online Application form when applying for an Irish Visa.

NOTE: If you are unable to access the Online Application form, even though your country of residence (and current location) is listed, it could be that your internet access is provided through another country, for which the online facility is not yet available – i.e. your Internet Provider (IP) Address is registered in another country. You can use the website www.ip2location.com to find out where your IP address is registered

Browser Compatibility

You will need to use Internet Explorer in order to access this facility. We are currently working towards fully supporting other browsers in the near future.
