<strong>Irish</strong> <strong>Naturalisation</strong> <strong>and</strong> Immigration Service<br />

We will endeavour to process your application within 4 working days of receipt, <strong>and</strong> will return your documents to you by registered<br />
post. Please ensure your address on your application form is complete <strong>and</strong> clearly legible.<br />
Alternatively, you can apply in person to the <strong>Visa</strong> Offi ce at the above address. The opening hours are 8.30am to 2.30pm Monday to<br />
Friday, excluding Public Holidays.<br />
At busy holiday periods throughout the year, e.g. Christmas/Easter/National Holidays, the volume of people calling to the offi ce may<br />
exceed the numbers to whom we can offer a same-day service. You should therefore always apply for your re-entry visa well in advance<br />
of proposed travel dates, <strong>and</strong> before making any travel arrangements.
