Does buying a property entitle you to live in Ireland?

Anyone can buy a property in Ireland, but does buying a property entitle you to Irish residency or a visa?

If you’ve been thinking about buying property in Ireland, retiring to Ireland or even spending a couple of weeks in Ireland, it’s highly likely that you’ve wondered about any legal or visa hurdles you may need to jump.

Well, it’s these types of questions that we’re discussing in this week’s podcast and we’re lucky to be joined by Aaron Flynn.

Aaron is a qualified solicitor specializing in Immigration under Irish and European Law. He heads up the Irish practice of Envoy Global, a global company which prides itself on a smooth Immigration experience.

Aaron talks us through the following topics:

  • Who is entitled to live in Ireland?

  • Which nationalities require a visa to live in Ireland? Find out more here

  • Does purchasing a property mean you can live in Ireland?

  • What is stamp zero and what does it entitle you to?

  • How to apply for stamp zero? Find out more here

Visa legislation can change rapidly though, so what applies today may not apply in two or three weeks time. This means it’s risky to assume that if you meet the requirements for some type of  Irish residency today, you’ll still meet them in three months time.
