The Department of Justice has announced today, that with effect from the September 12th, 2023, all Bolivian nationals will be required to obtain a visa before travelling to Ireland.
A transit visa will also be required, if intending to transit through Ireland en route to another destination.
The introduction of a visa requirement for Bolivian nationals at this time will bring Ireland into alignment with the visa regime applying in the UK and in the Schengen area, as Bolivian nationals are required to obtain a visa prior to travelling to these jurisdictions.
Irish visa requirements are kept under ongoing review, having regard to the need to ensure that effective immigration controls are in place whilst also facilitating those who wish to travel to Ireland for the purposes of a visit, to work, to study or to join family members.
