EU / EEA / Swiss Free Movement — Directive 2004/38/EC
EU / EEA / Swiss Family Member Visa Checker
This is a separate route from the Short Stay “C” Visit Visa — different rules, different evidence. We'll ask a short set of questions to check whether you qualify as a family member of an EU, EEA, or Swiss citizen exercising free-movement rights in Ireland.
Looking for the ordinary Visit Visa Checker instead?Reference guide onlyThis checker gives a preliminary indication based on the answers you provide. It is not legal advice and not an official decision — only the relevant Irish authority can decide your case. Always confirm with an official source or a qualified immigration adviser before acting on it.
