Visa Requirement Wavier for Ukrainian Nationals

On February 25th 2022 it was announced by the Minster for Justice that visa restrictions for citizens from Ukraine intending to come to Ireland were lifted immediately.

This evidently is an emergency measure.

If a Ukranian national comes to Ireland, you will have 90 days then to formalise their immigration status in Ireland.

Essentially the visa requirement which otherwise would be necessary is waived in the current crises.

Pre-entry clearance and the time it takes to obtain visas, this issue has been dealt with, the requirement waived for the present time.

This may be keenly relevant to Ukrainian nationals already in Ireland who wish to bring their family members here.
