As Australian nationals are not visa required for Ireland, I understand that the Deputy is referring to the number of Australian nationals registered on a Stamp 2 student immigration permission.

The below table reflects the number of Australian nationals in the State required to register or renew a Stamp 2 student permission in each of the calendar years 2021 to 2024. Information in relation to 2025 is not currently available.

* Please note, figures are correct at time of issue, however, all statistics may be subject to data cleansing.

* Numbers reflect those required to register/renew in a calendar year. Most renewals are annual. However, there may be Australian nationals in the State with multi-annual permissions and not required to renew every calendar year, or may have been required to register/renew multiple times in the same calendar year. These numbers per year should not be summed to an overall total but rather reflect the number required to register/renew in that calendar year.
