It depends on the university’s requirements. Many universities abroad, including those in Ireland, may ask for a migration certificate as part of your application to confirm you’ve completed your previous degree and are eligible to enroll.

- Typically required if you’re moving between institutions with different boards or universities.
- Issued by your current university or educational board.
- Requirement varies by university and country.

Check the specific admission requirements for each university you’re applying to. If needed, request the migration certificate from your current university’s academic office.
