The position remains that, while there is no current plans to alter the visa regime for nationals of Colombia in the short-term, the situation is kept under review.
In support of visa processing in Colombia, Ireland has recently opened a Visa Application Centre (VAC) in Bogota. I should also point out that we have also extended the multi-entry visa option for up to 5 years for all visa required countries. These measures should assist in timely processing of visa applications and a more flexible visa package for Colombian citizens visiting Ireland.
