Renewal and Extension of Irish Work Permits

If you currently hold an Irish work permit and wish to continue your employment in Ireland beyond the initial permit period, you’ll need to consider the renewal and extension process. At Abbey Blue Legal Ltd, we specialize in guiding individuals and employers through the renewal and extension procedures for Irish work permits.

1. Determine Eligibility

Before initiating the renewal or extension process, assess whether you meet the eligibility criteria for extending your work permit. Consider factors such as your current employment, changes in job details, and the type of work permit you hold.

2. Review the Expiry Date

Check the expiration date of your current work permit. It’s essential to start the renewal or extension process well in advance to avoid any gaps in your legal status.

3. Gather Required Documentation

Collect all necessary documentation

  • A valid job offer letter or employment contract.
  • Updated passport and passport-sized photos.
  • Copies of your qualifications, certificates, and transcripts (if applicable).
  • Any additional documents specified by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS).

INIS will review your renewal or extension application. This process may take several weeks, and you may be contacted for additional information or clarification.

7. Biometric Data
(if required)

Depending on your nationality and the permit type, you may be required to provide biometric data, such as fingerprints or a photograph, at a designated location.
