According to an official announcement made by the Israeli Consulate in Dublin-Ireland, the consulate will stop providing any consular services on an immediate basis. This includes, but not limited to visa processing. No reasoning or explanation was provided in the announcements.
According to the announcements, all consular services for Irish nationals or residents, will be provided until further announcements by the Israeli Consulate in London, United Kingdom.
Since the Irish nationals are visa waivered to Israel, the non-visa service at the consulate in Ireland will affect only those seeking to process either 3-month STEP B-1 work visa or 1 Year B-1 work visa.(Expert or Hi-Tech)
