Thanks a lot.
I will not leave the airport, I will just spend few hours there.

For that few hours You still need a transit visa to land at Dublin airport, because Dublin Immigrations still need to check you in. Are you just gonna present them with a port with no visa to land at their airport?

AchrafHakimi:


If you did, don't you think it would be one of the airline's requirements?

Mumu².

Na your over Sabi type go hang for bad situation. Person ask wetin e no know. na u travel na.

I got confused about similar thing sometime ago, and I called the concerned embassy.

You don't require as long as you'll be there for a few hours and you won't be leaving the airport vicinity..
Only if u wanna step outside would u require a transit visa

Hello fam.
I will be traveling to the UK soon (Scotland precisely) and I intend to book a flight (Turkish Airline) that has a stopover at Istanbul and Dublin.
Do I need a transit visa to go through Dublin?

Please I really need your reply 🙏

Yes, you need a transit visa to transit through any EU airport e route UK with a Nigerian port. I lost £700 last year when I ignorantly booked a flight to London via Frankfurt on Lufthansa for my mother in law.

Bros people are just baselessly wicked in naija. Read comments from other countries you will see how civil, responsible and respectful they are, but when you come here, even if you greet you receive insults as if we are a rare breed of people born and bred in hell. The OP asked a very important question that I am eager to also learn from the answers.

You would need a transit visa to land at Dublin aiport enroute to any other country, immigration will still have to check you in before you enter the arrival hall, they will demand for landing visa for their airport it doesn't matter if you leave the airport or not. Even if your there for 30 minutes.

No, you don't need it. You're just an international ager who is transiting. You will only need if you want to come out of the airport and spend a couple of days in Istanbul before continuing with your journey to the UK.

He wont need it if he was going to US, but if its UK he will need it

Jnrbaino4real:
You dont need turkish visa. I used turkish airline when i was going to uk. I did not use any transit visa,.
As for as turkish airline is considered

did you dublin
?

You did not need a transit visa to stopover in dublin Airport as long as you are not entering the country. All you have to do is to find your way to the transit hall and patiently await your flight to Uk.

You won't need one if it is a technical stopover.
To identify a technical stopover you will notice that the stay time is short and the flight won't change.

Are you serious or you are playing.

Istanbul airport is so beautiful 😍 ..... I transited there on my way to Italy! Loved it!

Good evening all,

The onus is on every traveller to ensure that they have appropriate visa for their journey.

Turkish airline in conjuction with their home country can waive transit visa within TURKEY only. Same way Egyptian airline wave for their engers in Cairo.

In this particular case, I think you will need a transit visa.

Transit visa is what it is.

1. Call the airline and ask them their advise based on previous experiences.
2. As this questions on Google/Quora/Reddit/ you will get response from people who had the same problem.

If both your arrival flight and onward connecting flight are in Terminal 2 between the hours of 04:00 and 16:00 on the same day, you need a transit visa in this case. In all other situations you will need permission to enter the State.

He needs transit visa.

YOU NEED TRANSIT VISA. It's well stated on their website. Here's the link https://www.irishimmigration.ie/at-the-border/transit-including-transfer-visa-advice/

Just get the LR card from a reputable travel agency you don't need a transit visa.

You need transit visa to enter Ireland's transit hall. Even if you're staying for 30 secs.

It is called a stop over for a reason and in most cases, it is to drop of travellers going to that destination or pick other travellers going to your destination while transferring the engers to either a bigger plane if the engers are much in number or to a connecting flight to your destination.

In an ideal situation, you don't need a transit visa since you are staying inside the airport until you board the flight taken you to your destination.

The appropriate and right thing for you to do will be to call the customer service of the airline for clarity.

Wishing you a safe trip to your destination.

In matters like this, you want to check directly on the government website before taking off from Nigeria.

Is there not direct flight to UK again?
