IMPORTANT: This page is for information only. SureshotVisa guides you through this route and, once you hold your own job offer or employer sponsorship, prepares and files the visa application — we are not a recruiting agent, so the offer must be yours. To work in Ireland you generally need a job offer and an Employment Permit from the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment (DETE) — for example a Critical Skills or General Employment Permit — or, for short specialised work under 90 days, a permission under the Atypical Working Scheme. Once that permission/permit is granted, visa-required nationals must then apply for a long stay 'D' work visa (or a 'C' employment visa for very short 14–90 day contracts) through AVATS, and register with immigration (GNIB) after arrival. This page explains the route at a high level; for any work-visa filing you must approach the Irish employer, DETE, the Irish immigration authorities, or a licensed work-immigration specialist.
What it costs
Paid directly to Ireland / VFS — these are not our service fee, and we never mark them up.
Figures per irishimmigration.ie, last verified 9 Jun 2026. Fees change without notice — the official page is final.
SureshotVisa does not collect any fee for Ireland work visas because we do not provide this service. Employment permit fees (DETE), the Atypical Working Scheme fee (€250), and the visa fee are all set by the Irish authorities — verify them only on official Irish government sources.

We are a B2B travel agency as well as a visa consultancy, working with partners including Riya Travel — so the flight reservation and the confirmed hotel booking both come from us, and you deal with one team. Every booking is a real one under your own name. We do not sell travel insurance: buy the policy directly from an insurer.

What to gather
Having a document isn't the same as presenting it right — that's the part we handle.
Indicative only — exact requirements are set by the Irish authorities.
Generally required before the work visa can be applied for. A copy must accompany the visa application.
Required · optional / if applicable
4 steps from intake to approval — never as linear as government sites pretend.
Secure an Irish job offer
A confirmed job offer / employment contract from an Irish employer is the starting point. SureshotVisa does not arrange jobs or sponsorships.
Obtain the permit or AWS approval
The employer/employee obtains an Employment Permit from DETE, or (for short specialised work under 90 days) an Atypical Working Scheme Letter of Approval — applied for from outside Ireland.
Apply for the work visa via AVATS
Once the permit/approval is granted, visa-required nationals apply for a long stay 'D' work visa (or 'C' employment visa for 14–90 day contracts) through AVATS — not through SureshotVisa. Allow at least 8 weeks.
Register with immigration after arrival
Long-stay workers (16+) staying over 90 days must register with the Garda National Immigration Bureau (GNIB) / immigration after arrival. Consult the Irish authorities or a licensed work-immigration specialist.

There is no honest standard answer for Ireland ireland work visa / permit (long stay 'd' — information only) — the route depends on who is sponsoring you, what the employer has already started, and which region is processing it.

Send us what you have: an offer letter, an email from the employer, or just the facts as they stand. A consultant at our licensed firm will tell you straight what is possible, what is not, and what it would take.
