American needing to extend 90 days for internship

Post by kittyhawk » Thu May 07, 2015 5:28 pm

Newbie here. I'm American. I'm looking into an internship/temp job in Ireland doing digital marketing - unpaid. They want me there for 6-9 months. I know I can only stay for 90 days without a special visa. I've been out of school for 5 years so the student work scheme is not an option. Does anyone have any recommendations to stay longer? What are my options? Does Ireland have a freelance visa/permit I could apply for? Or does the UK have one? I know Germany has one. Could I apply for it in Germany but then continue my internship in Dublin? Thx all!

Sorry I don't have a suggestion, but just to outline that your 90 days visa exemption would not let you work (even unpaid) during that period. When you enter the border control officer will put a stamp on your passport which clearly says no work authorised.
