The above is a travel document issued to refugees.Who else can land in Ireland without a visa?
You do not need a visa to land in Ireland if:
You hold a valid travel document issued by one of the following countries in accordance with Article 28 of the Geneva Convention: Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Iceland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovak Republic, Spain, Sweden, or Switzerland.

The next question you will be asked is ‘Journey Type’ – whether this is Single or Multiple.
A Single Journey visa will allow you to seek entry to Ireland on one occasion only within the dates shown on the visa.
A Multiple Journey visa will allow you seek entry to Ireland on a number of occasions within the dates shown on the visa.
Note on Multiple Entry Visas
It is not our general practice to issue Multiple-Journey visas unless you have shown a compliant travel history to Ireland in the recent past.
For a Short Stay visa, if you have held 2 previous Irish visas and have observed the conditions of these visas (e.g. you did not overstay or work illegally) you may apply for a Multiple-Journey visa.
However, the purpose of these visas is to allow a person to travel to Ireland on a number of occasions during the dates shown on the visa, for short trips only. It is not permitted to use this category of visa to bypass immigration rules governing residency in the State – i.e. it is not possible to remain in Ireland for a period of 90 days and then seek to re-enter the country for further periods of up to 90 days. Any abuse of this may result in future applications being refused. The issuance of a Multiple Journey visa will be at the discretion of the Visa Officer.
Thanks for your help, Fatty Patty!fatty patty wrote:The one thing visa officers look for is the applicant's ties in home country / country of residence. If your wife is studying / working then the holiday letter from college / work letter from employer would be a requirement.
IMHO a typical list includes:
Applicant's passport, visa form completed, visa fees, holiday letter from college/work showing duration of holidays, payslips if working or student letter from college if student, around 3-6 months bank statements showing sufficient funds or credit card statements showing sufficient credit, hotel booking (if no Irish sponsor) etc.
