To obtain it, you must take a course of at least 25 weeks in that country to study English. The costs of these courses range between 2,500 and 3,000 euros. With this visa you can work part-time during your stay to cover your study expenses.
The third option is the Work Visa. This is the one that imposes the most requirements. Firstly, there must be a job offer from an employer in Ireland. There is also the option of entering as a researcher, which is known as the Employment Scientific Researcher Visa.
