How Do You Renew An Irish Passport?
Like any other European Union member state passport, an Irish passport allows its owner to travel freely throughout EU countries and live in any of these states for up to three months. Irish passports are issued by the Department of Foreign Affairs only to citizens of Ireland. For citizens of Ireland, the process is simple and begins at the nearest Irish consular office. Visit the Dublin Passport Office, or Ireland’s nearest embassy or consulate. From here you will pick up the renewal application form and specific instructions with regards to fees and processing times, which may vary. Complete each section of the passport application form in black pen using capital letters, and sign the document in the designated box. Attach two recent color passport photos. You will need a qualified witness to sign the back of one of the photos and the witness section of your application. The application will outline the qualifications for your witness. Include proof of Irish citizenship with your app
