Naturalisation by Association in Ireland: Exploring the New Citizenship Guidelines
Applications for Irish nationality and citizenship are governed by the Irish Nationality and Citizenship Act 1956, as amended.

These new citizens represent a small part of a growing number of persons interested in and eligible for Irish citizenship by naturalisation.
