To apply for an Irish visa from Bangladesh, follow the process outlined below:
- Online Application: All Bangladeshi applicants must complete an Online Visa Application Form. Visit the INIS website, which will direct you to a secure site where you can fill out the online application form.
- Summary Application Sheet: After completing the online application, you will receive a summary application sheet generated by the system. Print out this sheet, as you will need to submit it along with your passport and the required supporting documents.
The type of visa you need to apply for depends on the purpose of your travel to Ireland. Generally, Irish visas can be categorized into three main types:
- Short Stay Visa (less than 90 days): This category includes visas for business visits, conferences, tourism, visiting family/friends, transit, exams, internships, joining a ship, medical treatment, performances/tournaments, training, and more.
- Long Stay Visa (more than 90 days): If you plan to stay in Ireland for more than 90 days, you will need to apply for a long stay visa. This includes visas for employment, scientific research, joining family, and other similar purposes.
- Student Visa: If you are planning to study in Ireland, the Dhaka office provides comprehensive admission and visa solutions for students. They can assist you with obtaining the necessary “Sticker Visa” for your studies.
