Our law firm specializes in helping individuals and families navigate the complexities of immigration law, particularly in the context of the rights granted under Directive 2004/38/EC (Free Movement Directive).

Our Services for Family Members of EU/EEA/Swiss Citizens Include

Visa Application Assistance

If you do not hold a “Residence card of a family member of a Union citizen” as referred to in Articles 5(2) and 10(1) of Directive 2004/38/EC, you are required to obtain a visa to enter Ireland. We can guide you through the process of applying for a single journey short-stay C visa, allowing you to reside in the state for up to 3 months. This visa is necessary for those who:

Wish to accompany or join an EU/EEA/Swiss citizen family member moving to or residing in Ireland under the Directive.

Are non-EEA nationals without the specified “Residence card.”

Residence Card Applications
