Issuing residence permit cards sees State bag over €70m

Non-EEA migrants who require a visa to live, work, and/or study in Ireland pay a fee of €300 to either register or renew their residence permit cards.

More than €70m was made by the State last year to produce residence permit cards for non-European migrants living in Ireland.

This was an increase of 34%, compared to 2022, and is the highest total ever recorded by the department.
