Changes to Regulations for Renewable Visa Stamps
|
|
|
Dear Doctor,
It has been brought to our attention by a number of our Non-EU Doctor members currently working in Ireland that a change has been made to the regulations with regard to Renewable Visa Stamps for Doctors working in Ireland.
From July 1st 2009, it is now required that any Doctor wishing to work in Ireland must have their Visa renewed on a ‘Type 1 Stamp’ synchronised with fixed-term working contracts with a duration of six months issued by the HSE. Previously, the standard practice was to renew their Visa with a ‘Type 4 Stamp’ which would be valid for two years from the date of the stamp.
This change to the regulation has caused significant difficulties for the Non-EU Doctors working in Ireland.
On foot of the above, the IMO has written seeking a meeting with the Department of Justice with a view to discussing the implications and effects this will have on this vital group of Doctors in the medical profession.
I will revert to all NCHD members once a date has been finalised.
Yours sincerely,
George McNiece
CHIEF EXECUTIVE
