At the citizensinformation in the article about Irish citizenship by birth I see the following statement:
I wonder if kids of EU/EEA/Swiss citizens will obtains the Irish citizenship in such case because EU/EEA/Swiss citizens have a right to live in Ireland without any restriction on their period of residence?Parent from outside Ireland and UK
If you were born in Ireland on or after 1 January 2005 and neither of your parents were Irish or UK citizens, your entitlement to Irish citizenship by birth depends on your parents’ residence status and history.
One of your parents must have:
- Lived in Ireland or Northern Ireland for 3 out of the 4 years before you were born OR (please note that it is OR, not AND)
- Have the right to live in Ireland or Northern Ireland without any restriction on their period of residence
Does anyone know cases when kids got Irish citizenship in such case? If yes, what status had the parent(s) (worked/studied in Ireland or just visited the country as a tourist and gave birth there) and so on.
