Thank you for your support!

We cannot offer specific advice regarding visa requirements for Ireland as everyone’s circumstances are individual, but we will do our best to assist in any way that we can. We recommend that you please refer to the official Irish government immigration website - www.irishimmigration.ie - for the most up to date information. Please do not depend on information provided by private agencies. The Irish Immigration Service offers a short stay (Conference/Event) visa for visits of up to 90 days for those from visa-required countries. All short stay visas are also called ‘C’ visas.

You can find out more information regarding your personal requirements for attending a Conference in Ireland, including if the passport you will be using is issued by a country that is visa required here.

If you do require a visa to enter Ireland, we recommend that you start your visa application as early as you can. It is not possible to tell in advance exactly how long it will take for your visa application to be processed as each application is different and processing times can vary, but some can take a considerable amount of time, so please do start your application as early as possible.

You must apply for a visa before travelling. You must do this from your home country or the country where you are a legal resident. We strongly recommend that delegates apply for their visas well in advance - ideally at least three months before travelling to Ireland - to allow sufficient processing time.

Any requests for letters of support must be sent by email to conference@iaymh2026.org after your registration has been completed and paid in full. Please also indicate below that you will require a letter of support.

If you choose to stay elsewhere, please note that many online booking platforms highlight a hotel’s environmental credentials in their descriptions, making it easier to choose more sustainable options.

We also encourage delegates to book accommodation within close proximity to the conference venue, allowing you to walk or make use of Dublin’s extensive public transport network for your daily journey to IAYMH2026.
