No, anyone from the EU can come and live here for as long as they like. We have agreements in place with other countries - you don't say where you're from so you should check your country's status with the Irish Dept of Foreign Affairs: http://www.foreignaffairs.gov.ie/home/index.aspx?id=8605 If you are from the US, you can stay for 3 months but will need a residency permit for longer than this. To get one, you have to prove you can support yourself independently. Normally, this option is only open to the very wealthy. You will not be allowed to work here unless your occupation is one that is in demand. You can check if you are likely to get a work permit here: http://www.entemp.ie/sitemap/internationalworkers.htm Ireland is in recession and the numbers of unemployed are rising daily. Unless you have an occupation that is guaranteed employment here, I would not recommend moving at this time. However, many economists are hopeful that we will be able to ride the current financial crisis out and are optimistic that things will pick up again in about 2-3 years. If your plan to move here is a long-term one, you could possibly work to that sort of timescale and make sure you have all the skills and resources needed when the time comes. Good luck.
