Is there a requirement to show liquid funds in the bank account for Ireland visa? If yes, how much and for how long?

Yes, you must show liquid funds in your bank account when applying for an Irish student visa. For courses over eight months, you need at least €10,000 accessible in your account, supported by six months of up-to-date bank statements. For shorter courses, the requirement is about €833 per month. Make sure your funds are readily available and check official guidelines before applying, as requirements may change.
