Yup

Also see Frequently Asked Question from the DOJ website.

Remember that the visa should be issued free of charge, and as part of an accelerated procedure, if your mother is living in the same household as you or dependent on you.

U sure Obie, Ireland isn't Schengen, the OP will need an Irish Visit visa, unless I've got things totally wrong!

I didn't dispute anything you said Mr Wanderer, i wouldn't dream of doing such a thing. I just added to it.

Yes Ireland is not part of Schengen , but an Irish Visa for family members of EEA national should be issued using the procedures or rules stipulated on directive 2004/38EC, which incidentally the Schengen States have to abide by as well. I added the extra bit because the OP is British, which means his non-EEA family member will benefit under community rules

That's interesting Obie, I didn't realise....

Is this the same in reverse, ie someone living in say Germany with a non-EU spouse can get a UK or Irish visit visa with no fuss? I must say my experience is it isn't so easy, despite the directive, whenever we've dealt with EU diktat it's always been a nightmare.

[Obie]

In the case of parents, evidence of dependency or membership of the same household will be required. Such family members are entitled to travel with or accompanying their EEA relation to any member state without hindrance.

The EEA family permit regulations makes provisions for these family members.

Even though Ireland and UK tries to make additional requirements, they nevertheless acknowledge their rights.

Family member
7.—(1) Subject to paragraph (2), for the purposes of these Regulations the following persons
shall be treated as the family members of another person—
(a) his spouse or his civil partner;
7
(b) direct descendants of his, his spouse or his civil partner who are—
(i) under 21; or
(ii) dependants of his, his spouse or his civil partner;
(c) dependent direct relatives in his ascending line or that of his spouse or his civil partner;
(d) a person who is to be treated as the family member of that other person under paragraph
(3).

The answer to your question is therefore yes.

Hey Everyone,

I a British citizen, living in Belfast, married to a national of the Middle East, we are planning to visit Cyprus for a short-stay holiday, and to get to Cyprus we would like to use Dublin Airport, instead of flying to London etc.,

I was wondering if my husband who holds an identity card for foreign national issued in the UK, whether he is exempt from applying for an Irish visa? (just to go to Dublin Airport)

I also have a Cypriot nationaliy.

Does being married to an Eu citizen and holder of ID CARD FOR FOREIGN NATIONALS issued from UK, allow him to enter the Republic of Ireland?

I am sorry if this issue has been discussed somewhere else and I am raising it again, it's just i don't have much time on my hands.

Please only reply if you are sure.... Thanks
