Due to the situation of the COVID-19 epidemic and the current restrictive measures put in place by the Irish government, the functioning of the consular section of the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Dublin is limited. A personal visit is only possible in urgent cases and by scheduling an individual meeting slot by e-mail, and while complying with hygienic measures.
For urgent cases, the meeting must be arranged in advance by emailing: consulate_dublin@mzv.cz
There are two points of telephone contact; a fixed landline (+353 / 0/1 668 1135) during working hours and an emergency line for use outside of working hours (tel .: + 353 87 618 9055).
In the event that a meeting is arranged, the following measures must be observed:
- arrive at exactly the agreed hour, delays will not be accommodated;
- only one person will be admitted to the waiting room;
- a facial covering of the mouth and nose is required (eg: facial mask);
- bring your own pen for signatures;
- application forms to be pre-filled according to the instructions from prior correspondence when arranging the meeting;
- the exact amount in cash to be paid (according to the instructions from prior correspondence when arranging the meeting ) should be placed in an envelope;
- After entering the waiting room, please use the hand sanitiser available at the door.
Thank you for your understanding.
