Ireland’s Palestinian Visa Rejection Rate Surges Past Half
(MENAFN) Ireland rejects more Palestinian visa applications than it approves for the first time in a decade, with refusal rates rising sharply across both short- and long-term applications.
Government figures show that 63% of Palestinians seeking short-term entry to Ireland have their applications rejected, according to reports.
The refusal rate has increased fourfold since 2023, marking a significant change in the treatment of Palestinian applicants.
Long-term visa applications have also faced a substantial rise in rejections, with more than half of Palestinian applicants now being denied compared with only 9% last year.
Study visa applications have similarly experienced a notable increase in refusals, according to reported figures.
The figures also highlight a contrast with Israel, whose citizens continue to be able to travel to Ireland without obtaining a visa.
