The Marriage Visa is a type of Short Stay 'C' visa designed for individuals in a relationship with Irish citizens or residents who wish to marry or enter into a civil partnership within Ireland. Applicants can only request this visa after both partners have received confirmation from the Registrar regarding the acknowledgment of the date of receipt of their notification of the intention to marry or form a civil partnership in Ireland.

If you are a citizen of Switzerland or a country in the European Economic Area, there is no need to apply for a marriage visa. However, if you are a citizen of a country not exempt from visa requirements, you must apply for a marriage visa if you plan to marry in Ireland. Before initiating the marriage visa application process, you must inform the Registrar of Civil Marriages in Ireland about your intention to marry. Specifically, you should obtain acknowledgment from the Registrar, confirming the date on which you officially notified them of your intent to marry in Ireland. It's crucial to be aware that your application with the Registrar must be submitted at least three months before your planned wedding date in Ireland.

To be eligible for a marriage visa, certain essential conditions must be fulfilled:

• Possession of a passport valid for at least six months beyond the intended departure date from Ireland.

• Demonstrated capability to financially sustain yourself throughout your stay in Ireland.

• Provision of ample evidence establishing the nature of your relationship with your partner.

• You need to provide certain information which proves the relationship between you and your partner. For instance, you could provide evidence showing your prospective spouse/civil partner has traveled to your country of residence to visit you several times. Also, correspondence can be used as demonstrable evidence. 

• Do note that you must have met face-to-face with your partner on several occasions to be considered for the marriage visa. If the relationship was formed solely over the internet or through text messages, your application will not be considered. 

• A key component of the marriage visa application is financial evidence. Essentially, Irish immigration officials want you to provide evidence that you can fund your expenses while you are in Ireland (whether through your finances, or the finances of someone else).
