2. Citizenship by Descent
If you have Irish ancestry, you may be entitled to claim citizenship through descent. Eligibility includes:
-
Parents: If one or both of your parents were Irish citizens at the time of your birth, you are automatically entitled to citizenship.
-
Grandparents: If your grandparent was born in Ireland, you can apply for citizenship by registering your birth with the Foreign Births Register.
We assist clients in collecting birth certificates, marriage records, and other necessary documentation to ensure eligibility under Irish descent laws.
3. Foreign Birth Registration (FBR)
For individuals whose Irish citizenship is derived through a grandparent, registration with the Foreign Births Register is mandatory before applying for a passport.
Our team will guide you through the process, ensuring:
-
Accurate completion of your Foreign Birth Registration application.
-
Submission of required documents, such as birth and marriage certificates, and notarized proof of lineage.
The FBR process can take time, but with our support, you can avoid delays and ensure accuracy at every step.
4. Irish Associations
While less common, citizenship may be granted based on Irish associations, typically requiring a strong personal or ancestral connection to Ireland. These applications are at the discretion of the Minister for Justice and are assessed on a case-by-case basis.
We can help you make a compelling case by documenting your connections and presenting your application professionally.
