Can I get a direct study visa for my child for seventh class, or is it only possible for bachelors and masters programs in Ireland?

Yes, you can apply for a direct study visa for your child to attend seventh class in Ireland.

Ireland allows non-European Economic Area (EEA) nationals to apply for a long-stay ‘D’ visa for children to study in fee-paying private primary or secondary schools.

- Your child must be enrolled in a recognized fee-paying school.
- Tuition fees must be paid before arrival.
- The visa application requires documents like the school acceptance letter, proof of paid fees, evidence of funds, and accommodation details.
- For unaccompanied minors, notarized parental consent is required.

Visa rules and processing times are subject to change.
