EU Treaty Rights – De Facto Category (Stamp 4)

Abbey Blue Legal provides specialist support for non-EEA nationals applying for residence permission in Ireland as the de facto partner of an EU citizen exercising Treaty Rights.

This permission, issued under Directive 2004/38/EC, allows eligible partners to reside legally in Ireland on the basis of a durable relationship with an EU citizen who is living and working, studying, or self-sufficient in the State.

We guide you through every stage of the process — from assessing your eligibility and gathering proof of your relationship to completing the formal application and liaising with INIS to ensure compliance with all EU Free Movement regulations.
