About this service
Immigration Consultation
A one-to-one consultation with an immigration specialist to talk through your situation and your options for visiting, working, studying, joining family or settling in Ireland. Irish immigration rules are detailed and change often, and the right route depends on your nationality, your plans, your family and your immigration history. You'll come away knowing which permission fits you, what the rules require, the likely costs and timelines, and exactly what to do next.

Answers
Frequently asked questions
An immigration consultation is a one-to-one session with an immigration specialist to work out the right route for your plans in Ireland. Irish immigration has dozens of permissions, and choosing the wrong one, or applying at the wrong time, can lead to refusal, wasted fees and long delays. A consultation looks at your nationality, your goals, your family and your immigration history, and explains which options are realistic and what each involves. It's useful at any stage: before you apply for a visa or employment permit, when your circumstances change in Ireland, when your permission is about to expire, or after a refusal. Employers also use consultations to understand how to hire staff from outside the EU/EEA.
No. We advise people living abroad and in Ireland, as well as Irish employers hiring non-EEA staff.
We'll give you an honest view of your chances based on the rules and your documents. Final decisions rest with the Irish authorities, so no one can guarantee an outcome.
Write down your key dates and questions and gather the documents listed above. The more we know in advance, the more we can cover in the time.
Yes. We regularly explain the employment permit options, salary thresholds and timelines to Irish employers planning to hire from outside the EEA.
