Ireland Short Stay Visa Waiver Programme

The Short Stay Visa Waiver Programme lets certain visa-required nationals who already hold a valid UK visa travel on to Ireland for a short stay without needing to obtain a separate Irish visa, according to Immigration Service Delivery. The programme applies to a specified list of nationalities and to particular types of UK visa, and conditions apply — including that your permission in Ireland is linked to your UK permission. Check the official programme page to confirm whether you qualify and the exact conditions before you travel.
