I am not a US citizen.

I am a legal permanent resident, and I have a valid green card.

I am a citizen of China.

I am qualified to apply for citizenship, but have not done so.

Do I need to apply for a visitor's visa to Ireland?

Please help, I have already bought airline tickets for next month...

  1. probably - check with the local passport office.


  2. hello,

    follow this link, this is the best option to solve the problems concerning visa. pay attention to the list of the countries. there you'll also find the address of the nearest embassy

  3. If you are a citizen of China (other than Macau or Hong Kong), you will have to obtain a visa to entre Ireland.   However, if you had been a citizen of an EU or EEA country or of one of the countries below you would not need a visa.   Citizens of all other nations all need visas.

    Andorra, Antigua and Barbuda, Argentina, Australia, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Bolivia, Botswana, Brazil, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Costa Rica, Croatia, Dominica, El Salvador, Fiji, Grenada, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Hong Kong (Special Admin. Region), Iceland, Israel, Japan, Kiribati, Lesotho, Liechtenstein, Macau (Special Admin. Region), Malawi, Malaysia, Maldives, Mauritius, Mexico, Monaco, Nauru, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Norway, Panama, Paraguay, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Samoa, San Marino, Seychelles, Singapore, Solomon Islands, South Africa, South Korea, Swaziland, Switzerland, Tonga, Trinidad and Tobago, Tuvalu,  the United States of America, Uruguay, Vanuatu, the Vatican City and Venezuela.

  4. There's no point in asking questions like that here. You need to contact the Irish Embassy or Consulate in China, and they should be in your national telephone directory.

    I think you probably do need some sort of a visa, but if you're only going to be in Ireland for 10 days, it shouldn't be too much hassle.

  5. If you are a Chinese national, you need a visa to enter any EEC country even if you have a green card that allows you to reside and work in the USA. China has not signed into the Schengen Agreement and there is no visa waver agreement in place as if  you were an American citizen. I would contact the nearest Irish Consulate /Embassy immediately.

    You need eight weeks before you travel, and you probably will have to delay your departure .

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

  6. Yes you do need a visa

    People who do not require visas to visit IrelandCitizens of EU/EEA member states

    Citizens of the countries listed in the table below

    You require a visa if you are not an EU/EEA citizen and your country is not listed below

    http://www.citizensinformation.ie/catego...

    China is not on the list so you will need to go to the Irish embassy and apply for a visa

  7. You may also use this website.  Enter your nationality, that you are an alien resident of the U.S.A. and your destination, and it will tell you if you need a visa.  Go to second website for info on applying for a visa.

  8. no as long as you have a valid passport, you can stay in ireland for up to 90 days without a visa. If i were you though i would check your local passport office or whatever its called in china and see if different regulations apply to china but i dont think they do. hope that helps

  9. yes you will need a visa it should not be a problem

    other wise get ur self a UK visa and land in Northern Ireland

    u can visit the whole Ireland

    There is no border control between northern Ireland and Southern Ireland

    Enjoy your stay !   ;)
