APPROVAL IN PRINCIPLE SCHEME
Under this scheme, applicants for a study visa from India, who have been accepted on to a HETAC (the Higher Education and Training Awards Council in Ireland) approved course, can apply for a study visa without having to pay the requisite college fees in advance.

Fees need only be paid when the visa application has been approved. Once evidence of the Electronic Fee Transfer has been submitted to the visa office New Delhi the visa will issue.

Please check with your Irish Education provider as to whether or not your course is HETAC approved.

Applicants under this scheme should apply at least 5 weeks in advance of their date of course commencement to allow time for the Electronic Fee Transfer to take place.

Electronic Fund Transfer is the only acceptable method of fee payment recognised by the Irish Visa Office, New Delhi.
