How To Get An Irish Passport?

Irish passport

What can you do to get EU citizenship?

Since the outcome of the EU referendum, many British nationals have been rightly concerned about their possibilities for work, study and living in other EU countries. For many in the UK, there is good news. Over the past 100 years Irish people have been living and working in the UK. As their Irish families settled in the UK their children then became Irish and British, but their grandchildren weren’t entitled to apply for an Irish passport. Instead, the grandchildren must follow another route which is more complicated, but will ensure they get the Irish citizenship they are entitled too. Once they have their citizenship certificate they can apply for the Irish passport.

If you are concerned either you or more importantly, your children will have less options due to the Brexit you should seek legal advice to ensure you provide the best options for your family. Education is free or cheaper in many parts of Europe and some courses are taught to a higher standard. Your children might want to study medicine at Trinity in Dublin, languages in Italy, Arts in Paris or Engineering in Germany. If they don’t have an EU passport the costs and opportunities may be less. Even a simple study abroad program may be out of the question for many British people without an additional EU passport. It’s not that British nationals won’t be able to study or work in these EU countries, but that they may have to pay higher fees or be put behind the queue after the local and EU nationals are selected.

Call one of our staff today and find out if you or your children are entitled to Irish citizenship and if not how they might be able to gain it in the future.
