I am on a UK work permit. Do I need a visa to visit the Republic of Ireland?

Question

Additionally is it possible to procure a visa that will enable one travel to any member states of the European Union?

Answer 1

It depends on which country your passport is from.  Some people from S. Africa need to get shengan visas or something to get into certain countries.  Indian passportholders need to get visas to enter Eu countries as well outside of the UK in some instances too I think.  You will need to check your home country's visa site to check whether u have auto entry as a tourist or need to apply for a visa.

Answer 2

No, they'll never notice!

Answer 3

No.  You can go anywhere in Europe.

Answer 4

Why would you want to go to Ireland?????

Answer 5

It depends on which country you are from.  I am on a student visa and I want to visit there as well and I found out that persons from my country do not need a Visa.

However, I needed one to go to France and other European countries.  So it is not quite true that you can go anywhere in Europe as suggested in a previous answer.

Answer 6

If you are from a country in the EU then you don't need a visa to travel within it. It depends on where you are from and where your passport is for.
