Can you just move to Republic of Ireland without visas?

Question

Would love to go & live in Southern Ireland. Not sure whether it is that simplt to just move there as not part of UK. Also, do you need passports to go there?

Answer 1

Depends where you are from.  UK no need for Visa. EU citezen the same.

We drive on the left side of the road, so right hand drive car drivers take care.

Answer 2

Depends on your nationality whether you need a visa. If you are an EU national, no visa will be required under European legislation on the free movement of workers, etc. If you are a national of any other country you should check with the Irish Embassy.

You will need a passport as it is a separate country.

Answer 3

Yup. You can go live there if you are an EU citizen.

Answer 4

ignore mcp their obviously not listening, yes you need a visa to live and work here, of course you need a passport to get here, are you female and good looking coz if so maybe I can help, ha ha ah ah

Answer 5

Any EU citizen can come to Ireland and live here without a visa but everyone needs a passport except for people from the UK (you just need a driver's licence etc in theory though the airport staff can be a pain in the bum in this respect).  If you are not from the EU and this includes the new accession countries of Romania and Bulgaria you do need a visa or residence permit if you are going to be staying for any amount of time.

It is pretty hard to get these unless you can prove that you have Irish ancestors-check with your nearest Irish consulate/embassy for more details

Answer 6

no, you are from england, you are fine.

americans would have to do some paperwork

Answer 7

no pasport required, no visa required just a thrist for guinness and an appetite for good humoured craic, good luck.

Answer 8

If you are British, it's just like moving house here and if you are from certain EU countries it's just the same unless if you come from Poland and countries like that!!!
