MOVING TO IRELAND as an EU Citizen - PROs & CONs | Expats Living in Dublin

If you're moving to Ireland from an EU country, there are, of course, some pros and cons. Some hurdles are definitely easier to get over than for people trying to move from other countries. However, there are also some challenges, such as cost of living, which might easily get overlooked. Finally, I also cover some things to consider when moving, such as healthcare and language.

What documents do I need as a EU citizen to work and live in Ireland?

[@teapot6219]

The emergency tax issue and delay in getting first wages isnt just as EU citizen problem, im from Ireland but didnt get paid for 3 months when I started my job and there was no communication from HR or payroll about this just had to keep my fingers crossed every month that my wages would go into my bank account. If you take on more work or second job with a different company or organisation, youre placed back on emergency tax and when youre taken off it, both wages are taxed at 20% even though combined you might be earning under the 40% tax bracket. Just something to keep in mind, Ireland is not the type of country you can rock up to with no savings or fall back.

[@Sheidraam]

interesting, thanks

[@Danny30011980]

Everyone seems to be terrified ending up on emergency tax. OK the pay is lower then when you're still on emergency tax, but once you handed in your employers number to the tax office (or your employer does) then you will get all your overpaid taxes back on one whopping go along with that next salary coming up. It does not go lost, so no need to panic :-)

[@WineAndRum]

True, but for some people it's all about the cashflow. We like to point this out in case people save less than they need for the first couple months.

[@teapot6219]

Yes but for allot of people they need the money straight away & cant get through a month with 40% less income. If you take on extra work outside of the company or organisation youre working for, youre placed back on emergency tax & after youre placed back onto 20%, youre taxed 20% on both wages even if youre still earning under the 40% tax bracket. It costs money to be poor in Ireland.

Hello there ♡ Me and my sister are moving to Ireland next month and we were wondering if its possible to not have pps number when we head for accomodation?

I've seen another video that says the tax is 40%. Does anyone really know how much it is?

[@WineAndRum]

Ireland has two bands of taxes. Starting out the tax rate is 20% for a person who is single. This band goes up until salaries of €35,500. This may change in the future, it changed from €33,800 during my time here. But once you make over that amount there's a second band of tax of 40% which gets applied to the balance. So if you make €32k, you get taxes at 20%. If you make €40k, the first €35.5k gets taxed at 20% and the remaining €5k would be taxed at 40%.

[@WineAndRum]

Happy to hear you enjoyed the video. You need a PPS number when you open an Irish bank account because it's also the ID number that Revenue uses to collect taxes. So I'd recommend to research how paying taxes would work for you. If you need to pay taxes in Ireland, that should be reason enough for to get a PPSN. If you don't, you could also check out if an online bank account with an international bank would work for you.

Irish citizens get free healthcare if they are low to mid wage. This also applies to E.U citizens if they have been residing in Ireland for over a year. If you have a long term or serious illness, medication is free. Mental healthcare is free for all. So basically, you only pay if you can afford to and even if you do have to pay, medical expenses can be claimed back through your annual tax return.

We're planning on moving from Germany to Ireland next year. I'm german and my wife is from the Philippines. We have a 1 year old son who is also a german citizen. I think getting a residence visa for my wife shouldn't be a problem, because we're married and she already has a residence card for Germany. I think our biggest problem is gonna be finding an apartment and job. Because we most likely can't rent an apartment without a stable job. But if we find a job first we don't know if we can find an apartment in that area. Right now there aren't many apartments to choose from because of the housing crisis. We don't really have any special qualifications. We're just average people and we would be ok with a minimum wage job as long as we can live a decent life in Ireland. No matter how hard it's gonna be. We both don't really like Germany and we want our child to grow up in Ireland.

[@WineAndRum]

Hey, I’ll give some starter advice here.The residence card for Ireland is the EUFAM Stamp 4. You’ll be able to get that for her as you’re an EU citizen. The German residency card has no power or impact in Ireland. You can double check but she’ll probably need a visa to enter Ireland as a visitor. Then, once you have a job secured you have to apply for the stamp which would allow her to stay in Ireland with you pass however long visitors to Ireland can stay if that is applicable. So no. 1 you will need a job allow your family to stay with you in Ireland, and for her to be allowed to work. I’m not sure how long that takes these days. For the apartment, that’s tough. We had to afford what we could until the paperwork went through and I got the permission to be able to stay and work, which allowed us enough income to move to a better place. Because of the housing crisis most of us are living outside Dublin, so that’d be where I’d look first, commuter towns if not another county.

[@Squidvin]

@@WineAndRum We actually prefer smaller cities like Tralee, Letterkenny or Waterford. Anywhere in Ireland would be fine as long as there is at least a bus connection because we don't have a car or drivers license. And do I really need a job first before she can get a residence permit? Is there any way we can go to Ireland together and look for a job at the same time? Because even if I find a job. I'm not sure if the income will be high enough to cover the costs for my whole family. Idk if I need to have a certain amount of income so that my wife can get a residence permit. And what if I get a job but won't find an apartment in the same area? That would be a problem. That's why I'm wondering if I could get an apartment first and then look for a job in the area.

[@WineAndRum]

If you can find an apartment without having a job lined up is up to the landlord, but in most cases they would like to see a form of income or bank statements. You can try it, but how successful you will be, I can’t tell you. You can both come over to Ireland, but you would have a limit of 3 months to find a job before the visitor visa runs out. As non EU citizen, she can’t look for work on a tourist visa. What my wife and I used is the EU Treaty Rights - www.irishimmigration.ie/coming-to-join-family-in-ireland/joining-an-eea-or-swiss-national/eu-treaty-rights/ Hopefully the links are working - www.irishimmigration.ie/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Explanatory-leaflet-for-Form-EUTR1-v1123.pdf The Form EUTR1 is for intending to reside in Ireland for more than 3 months. Your wife would be a Qualifying member of an EEA National. With this form, if it succeeds she wouldn’t need to find a company to give her a work permit, she’d be permitted to work anywhere, but it does ask for evidence of employment for you. www.irishimmigration.ie/coming-to-join-family-in-ireland/joining-an-eea-or-swiss-national/ It’s a tough situation. I don’t have any better advice but either way is possible. It depends on how lucky you are. I would look for the location first, see what jobs may be possible and then try to secure a job before coming or try to do job and apartment in whatever order in a couple months, but your wife if she’s non-EU will need permission to work in Ireland.

How much do get for per hour working? Is that affordable to live for one with a family? What are the most available jobs for an unskilled worker? I'll be pleased if you response me. Thank u.

[@WineAndRum]

The minimum wage in Ireland is €10.10 per hour. If I did my maths correctly that means on minimum wage you make 2262€/month before tax. For a family the biggest challenge would be rent. In Dublin the average rent is really high but it would be cheaper in the rest of the country. Childcare from what I've heard is quite expensive too. I tried to look up some stats for unskilled jobs that are in demand. Covid probably changed a lot there but I found a list of jobs here: www.cso.ie/en/releasesandpublications/ep/p-cp11eoi/cp11eoi/ioscs/ Figure 2.2: Top occupations, 2011 and 2016 might give you an idea of which jobs have more of a demand.

[@peethasaccent]

Hi there, we are Germans thinking about moving to Ireland. I heard that the infrastructure is quite bad compare to Germany (as you are Austrian you could be related to that?). I wonder if it is really worth it then? (on the reddit board, mostly I get the reply of why would you leave Germany). We want to live in an English speaking country and EU citizenship will be helpful for moving there. Also, we are not necessarily work in an IT field, which probably the most available job for expats (we are graphic designers, and not focus on UX/UI). Then will it be really hard then?? We are desperate because the UK will have Brexit and our choice then is only Ireland. Thanks!

[@WineAndRum]

It's true that Ireland isn't as privileged as Germany or Austria. In the recent decades it's been transforming and catching up. But there are definitely challenges like Dublin's population growing faster than the infrastructure and public transport can. But I also think people who comment on such reddit threads are often there to vent their frustrations, so I would take such comments with a grain of salt. I can't say much about job opportunities for graphic designers. I'd check the various job websites to see if there's jobs out there that interest you. We've listed some job sites here: wineandrum.com/look-jobs-dublin/

[@peethasaccent]

​@@WineAndRum Thanks for the reply. Would you say as an Austrian you find Ireland to be a great place to live/settle down? despite of things that might be not as efficient or as good as Germany.

[@WineAndRum]

I think choosing a place to live/settle down is a very personal choice. It depends on how you feel about living in Ireland. Do you enjoy the culture, the Irish sense of humour and spending time with people here? There are, of course, cons to living in Ireland, like there are in any place. Since the living costs are high here though, being in a career where you can see your salary grow over time does help with living quality. The main challenge many people face is rent / buying a house and balancing that with saving for other things.

Can Italian passport holder work in Ireland?

[@WineAndRum]

As an EU citizen, you would not need a work permit to work in Ireland.

Is it not 3 months, a EU Citizen can stay in other EU State.

[@grassytramtracks]

All EU citizens have the right to live and work in any other EU country. You need to register with the tax department in the country you're moving to if you want to stay and you can stay a maximum 6 months to look for a job, but otherwise, you can work without a permit and you can stay as long as you like

I'm prasanna from India I have got job offer Ireland but I having doubts Whether company exists or not Can you help me pls Company name : soleil and spitze

[@WineAndRum]

Did a quick search of it. Can't find any more info besides their website, but it looks suspicious. The domain for the website was only registered this year, and that's suspicious for a company operating for almost a decade. Smells like a scam.

[@Thelma7361]

Bit late but you can always check the Companies Registration Office. (CRO) for Ireland or Companies House for the UK if you want to see whether or not a company is at least real and registered with the government. It will show you when the company was set up, who are the company directors, where their head offices are, their previous tax returns etc. if a company isn’t on these registers then I would question whether or not they are an illegal operation and would probably report them.

Loving the irish accent going on! Clearly you have been infected! Great video though.

[@WineAndRum]

Thanks! 😄

[@yupisaid]

This may seem like a weird question, and possibly a bit too personal, but have you noticed any weird looks when out and about with your partner? I know in Ireland some tend to disapprove of mixed-race relationships.

[@WineAndRum]

Luckily we haven't experienced anything like that. Wouldn't be surprised if it did happen but not something that we've recognised. Most of our negative experiences come from online these days.

[@yupisaid]

@@Kitiwake Are you speaking from experience Pat?

[@sabrinag4512]

I disapprove of junkies and drunk people in the streets of Dublin, but it’s not a reason to give these people or anyone weird looks. This is called tolerance and I’m Scandinavian and I thought the Irish were a bit cooler than that... apparently not, a shame

[@yupisaid]

@@sabrinag4512 Oh shut up Sabrina. Your last comment got deleted for talking shite, no one cares what cringe Scandinavians think. I'd rather live in Ireland and be free than live in that joke of a place you're from where the government do as they please with little input from that of the governed.

[@sabrinag4512]

@@yupisaid you don’t even know where I’m living! In Ireland you are just narrow minded in intolerant to what’s diffère from you and what I previously said was right and you didn’t like it because it showed what you are! Why should someone give weird looks to anyone I just don’t get it! Maybe it’s normal for you, they don’t even do that in America or the UK, you live in a complete bubble in Ireland, only when you go abroad you see that people are fucking normal ! And you think your government is better? Not even able to provide decent healthcare and housing to its people, and your former TD Eoghan Murphy saying that prisons should be turned into places for people to live! Give me a break!!

Ireland IS an E.U country! Change the video title. It will confuse the Yanks. 😁

[@WineAndRum]

Ha. Don't think we've had anyone mistake the Republic of Ireland for Northern Ireland or the UK on this video yet so we're good. Or I may have just jinxed it. 😄

[@josevilas4927]

The video title is O:K. it says Moving to Ireland as an EU citizen. What she explaining in her video is interesting and relevant for EU citizens from other countries. There are other videos for non EU citizens interested in moving to the Emerald Island that US citizens can watch. There is no confusion at all. I think she is from Austria, another EU country.

If you ever decided to go to Ireland, avoid Dublin!! Rent is too expensive, crime rate is high and homeless and drug addicts are all around. Since Covid, many people get attached/Stabbed at night. Also, the law and policing are week, you won't get your rights.

[@kierangreene6714]

Errrrr....Ireland IS in the EU!!!! Its like saying "Moving to California from the USA"!

[@WineAndRum]

It's seemingly an awkward title. But... It's like "Moving to California from a US State". It's all part of the USA, but the procedures for a person moving from outside of the USA to California vs. within the USA to California, would be different.

[@filippat.5011]

California is not a country tho

[@thatguykeelan1753]

Ireland is an EU country

[@WineAndRum]

Correct, Ireland is an EU country. However, the video is so titled because the process of moving to Ireland is different if you're already an EU citizen. Think we'll make that more explicit so less confusion occurs.

[@thatguykeelan1753]

@@WineAndRum Ohhhhhh ok, because the old title made it sound like you were moving from an EU country to outside of the EU which Ireland is not.

[@dakotalake9084]

We know that

[@thatguykeelan1753]

@@dakotalake9084 read the title "moving to Ireland as an EU citizen" you are an EU citizen if you live in Ireland.
