🇮🇪 Our Ireland Visa Application Process

How to apply for your Ireland visa with MUGC

THE MARK US GLOBAL ADVANTAGE

Our Streamlined Visa Consultancy Process

Applying for an Ireland Short Stay "C" Visit Visa shouldn't be a source of stress. At Mark Us Global Consultancy, we combine deep knowledge of Irish immigration policy with expert human review to ensure your application meets the specific requirements of the Irish Immigration Service. From navigating the AVATS online system to managing the crucial Letter of Application, we handle the complexities so you don't have to.

AVATS Online Application

We complete your application on the official Irish AVATS portal. This generates a summary form that must be printed and signed. As of late 2025, visa fees are now often paid during this online stage.

Appointment at VFS Global

We book your biometrics and document submission slot at the VFS Global center in Karachi (located in Bahria Complex IV). You will need to pay a VFS service fee (approx. $50–60).

Document Dossier Construction

We compile your original documents, including your passport, 3 recent biometric photos (35 mm x 45mm), and employment/business proofs. We ensure no staples are used, as per Embassy rules.

Decision & Passport Return

Once a decision is made in Dublin or Islamabad, your passport is returned via VFS. We provide a final briefing on arrival procedures at Dublin Airport, where an immigration officer will grant the final "Permission to Land."

Why choose us

Why Choose MUGC for Visa Assistance

We don’t just process applications; we build futures. Our mission is to provide transparent, reliable, and high-quality consultancy services that empower our clients to achieve their dreams of global mobility.

Expert Guidance

Unlike most of Europe, Ireland is NOT part of the Schengen Area. We ensure you understand that a Schengen visa won't work for Dublin and help you draft a high-quality Cover Letter that satisfies the strict "intent to return" and "sufficient funds" criteria.

Timely Support

Tourist visas for Ireland currently take 4 to 6 weeks to process. We manage your timeline to ensure your application is submitted at least 8 weeks before your travel date to account for any seasonal backlogs in the Dublin visa office.

Success Rate

We boost your approval chances by meticulously auditing your 6-month bank statements for "lump sum" deposits—a common cause for Irish visa refusals—and ensuring your NADRA documents (FRC) are perfectly formatted.

No. Ireland is not in Schengen, nor is it part of the UK. You need a separate visa for the UK or Schengen countries. However, if you have a valid UK “General Visitor” visa, you might qualify for the British-Irish Visa Scheme (BIVS)—ask us for details!

A Single Entry visa is approx. €60 (approx. PKR 18,500) and a Multiple Entry is €100 (approx. PKR 31,000), plus VFS service charges.

While not strictly required for the application of a ‘C’ visa, it is highly recommended and often requested by immigration officers upon arrival at Dublin Airport.

For a solo traveler, we recommend at least PKR 1.2M to 1.5M. For families, PKR 2.5M+ is safer. Avoid large, unexplained deposits right before applying.

Yes, but you must disclose it. Ireland and the UK share immigration data. We specialize in drafting “Explanation Letters” to address past refusals honestly and effectively.
