Travel Essentials
SAW: +03 · DUB: IST
When it's 6:00 PM in Pendik, Istanbul, it's 4:00 PM in Dublin.
Turkish passport holders need a visa to enter Ireland. Ireland is not part of the Schengen area, so a Schengen visa does not cover Ireland. Apply online at visas.inis.gov.ie, then submit documents at a VFS Global center in Istanbul or Ankara. The short-stay visa costs EUR 60 (about TRY 2,220) for a single entry or EUR 100 for a multiple entry. Required documents include a completed application form, passport photos, proof of funds (bank statements for at least 6 months), accommodation details, a return ticket, and travel insurance. Passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the planned departure. Processing takes 4 to 8 weeks.
Turkish nationals holding a valid UK short-stay visa can travel to Ireland without a separate Irish visa under the Short Stay Visa Waiver Programme. This applies to visits of up to 90 days, provided you enter Ireland from the UK. The programme covers tourism and business visits but not study or work. This is a useful shortcut for travelers combining a UK and Ireland trip on a single UK visa.
Direct flights from Istanbul (IST) to Dublin (DUB) run about 4 hours 15 minutes on Turkish Airlines and Aer Lingus. Ireland uses the euro (EUR), trading at roughly 37 TRY per EUR 1. Card payments work everywhere, including contactless on Dublin Bus. A Leap Card gives discounted fares: EUR 1.70 per bus ride (versus EUR 2.40 cash). Dublin to Galway by bus takes 2 hours 40 minutes on CityLink or Bus Eireann (EUR 15 to EUR 20). Dublin to Cork by train takes 2 hours 30 minutes on Irish Rail (EUR 20 to EUR 50).
Airlink 747 coaches depart from outside both terminals every 10–15 minutes to the city centre (€7 one-way). Dublin Bus routes 16 and 41 are cheaper (€3.10 with Leap card) but slower, taking 45–70 minutes. Taxis are metered; expect €25–40 to the city centre depending on traffic and time of day.
Rental car desks are located in both terminal buildings with a large multi-storey car park adjacent. For north-side city destinations, the airport is relatively quick via the Port Tunnel; south-side journeys add considerable time during peak hours.

Wind is the primary disruption risk. Atlantic storms from October through March can cause ground stops and diverts. Pack a waterproof layer regardless of season; dry, sunny days occur but rarely in long stretches.
