Irish passport holders enter Spain freely as EU citizens. No visa, no fee, no time limit on stays. Ireland is not in the Schengen Area, so passport control applies on arrival from Dublin. A valid Irish passport or Passport Card is sufficient.
For stays beyond 3 months, register at the Oficina de Extranjeria or local police station for a Certificado de Registro de Ciudadano de la Union (green card). The fee is EUR 12.
