Ministers Humphreys and Browne announce final temporary extension of immigration permissions
- For permissions due to expire between 21 September 2021 and 15 January 2022
- Extension is the final one and applies to people with permissions extended under previous notices
- For permissions registered by the Immigration Service in Dublin and An Garda Síochána nationwide
This final temporary extension of immigration permissions means that people who held a valid permission to be in the State in March 2020 are legally permitted to remain until 15 January 2022, even if their Irish Residence Permit (IRP) card has expired and they are awaiting a new one. Renewal is on the same basis as the existing permission and the same conditions will continue to apply. Special arrangements will, however, apply for international students, including English language students, as set out below.
The public registration office in Burgh Quay is open for appointments and Dublin-based customers can renew a permission online at https://inisonline.jahs.ie.
Renewals outside of the Dublin area are processed by the Garda National Immigration Bureau through the Garda Station network. Information on the contact details for all the registration offices outside Dublin is available at: www.garda.ie/en/contact-us/station-directory.
