If you are the child or grandchild of an Irish born citizen you are entitled to become an Irish citizen yourself.  Irish law allows you to hold Dual Citizenship, so you do not have to relinquish your own citizenship. As an Irish citizen you will automatically become a citizen of the European Union (EU) and eligible to live and work in any EU states. If you are unsure whether you qualify for Irish Citizenship by Descent, e-mail us details of your Irish ancestry and we will assess your claim. Contact irishcitizenclan@gmail.com If you are eligible for Irish Citizenship by Descent, we offer the following premium services for anyone who needs to trace legal documents for naturalization purposes.

Option I: Document Research & Retrieval

We can undertake an extensive search for all documents needed from the Irish side to apply for Irish Citizenship and/or to become and Irish Passport holder. The most vital document you will need is the record of the Irish birth of your parent/grandparent. This includes researching the relevant documents (birth and marriage certificates etc) and sending the certified, official copies to you as quickly as possible. Civil Certified records – Births and Marriages – will be provided if your ancestor was born and/or married in Ireland after 1864, when civil records began. If your ancestor was born prior to 1864 we can do a search for a baptism record in the local parish records. If your Irish ancestor was born/married/died in the UK we can also provide these records. In order to begin this process you can contact us at irishcitizenclan@gmail.com. All of the above for a once-off payment of €250

Option II: Research and Consultancy

This option includes all of the above as detailed above under option 1 – i.e research on and provision of the civil certified Irish records needed to apply for Irish citizenship/passport as well as advice and consultancy on the whole application process. We source Irish documents and either source application forms or inform you where to get them. We also offer advice on what documents you need to source, for the application, in your own country.
