I propose to take Questions Nos. 551 and 552 together.

I can advise the Deputy that any visa required national that wishes to enter the State, and remain, for up to 90 days must have a Type C Short Stay Visa. A visa required national that wishes to reside in the State for longer than 90 days must have a Type D Long Stay Visa.

My Department publishes information online regarding the number visa applications received, visa decisions issued and the nationality of visa applicants, from 2017 to 2024. This information is here:

The table below details the number of Type C Short Stay visa applications received and the first instance decisions made.

Table1: Type C Short Stay visa applications received and first instance decisions made in 2022, 2023, 2024 to 12 February 2025.

The table below details the number of Type D Long Stay visa applications received and the first instance decisions made.

Table 2: Type D Long Stay visa applications received and first instance decisions in 2022, 2023, 2024 to 12 February 2025.
