Visa’s for tourists traveling to Ireland
You will not need to apply for a tourist visa ahead of time to travel to Ireland.
Citizens of the EEA member states (the 27 countries of the European Union EU, together with Iceland, Norway, and Liechtenstein) and many other countries including USA, Australia, Canada and New Zealand do not require visas to gain entry to Republic or Northern Ireland.
