WELCOME!

I am delighted to welcome you to the website of our Embassy which I hope you will find useful and informative. In addition to providing information on the services provided by the Embassy, it is a source of information on Ireland and France alike and on the links between our two countries.

J'ai le plaisir de vous accueillir sur le site Internet de notre Ambassade que vous trouverez, je l'espère, intéressant et utile. En plus des informations sur les différents services de l'Ambassade, c'est une source d'informations sur l'Irlande et la France et des liens entre nos deux pays.   Une version française de notre site est disponible en cliquant ici.
