Renew at an office outside Dublin (you must live outside Dublin)

Renew your registration

If you wish to remain in Ireland, you must renew your immigration permission & registration on time. If you register in Dublin you must make an appointment on-line to renew at the Burgh Quay Registration Office. We release appointments nine weeks in advance. For instance, we release appointments today for seven weeks in the future.

You should make an appointment for a date closest to the expiry of your card but generally not more than two weeks before that date. Future applications could be affected by gaps in your record if you do not renew on time.
