Short-Stay Visa (C-Type Visa): This visa is suitable for individuals who want to visit Ireland for tourism, business meetings, attending conferences, or visiting family and friends. The short-stay visa allows stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. It is typically issued as a single-entry visa, allowing one entry into Ireland.

Long-Stay Visa (D-Type Visa): If you plan to stay in Ireland for more than 90 days, you will need a Long-Stay Visa. It is required for purposes such as work, study, family reunification, or joining a spouse or partner in Ireland. The long-stay visa may be single-entry or multiple-entry, depending on the purpose and circumstances.
