Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 13 June 2013
164. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the position on residency status-eligibility for naturalisation in the case of a person (details supplied) in Dublin 20; if he will indicate the correct level of fee in respect of update of Stamp 4 and-or application for naturalisation in their case; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraThe prescribed certification fee to be paid by a standard adult applicant on the issue of a certificate of naturalisation is €950. This was last increased by the Irish Nationality and Citizenship (Fees) Regulations 2008, which came into effect on 1 August, 2008.
As soon as the prescribed fee and other documents have been received from the person referred to by the Deputy, arrangements can be made for him to attend a citizenship ceremony at which he will make a declaration of fidelity to the Irish Nation and loyalty to the State and receive his certificate of naturalisation.
