Visa & Entry

Spanish passport holders enter Ireland freely as EU citizens. You can use either a Spanish passport or national ID card. There is no visa requirement and no time limit on your stay. Ireland is an EU member, so you have full rights to live and work there.

Ireland is not in the Schengen area, so flights from Spain do pass through Irish immigration on arrival. The check is quick for EU nationals. Just show your passport or ID card. No stamp is given to EU citizens.

If you plan to stay in Ireland longer than 3 months, you do not need to register with immigration (unlike non-EU citizens who must register with the Garda National Immigration Bureau). EU citizens just need a PPS number (Personal Public Service Number) to work or access services. Apply at your local Intreo centre with your passport and proof of address.

Verify entry requirements with official sources before travel.
