Do I need a Visa to visit France?

If you're a U.S. citizen, a valid passport is required for travel to all E.U. member states. A visa, however, is not required for either tourist or business stays.

You'll also need to comply with all government travel requirements. Please view specific documentation requirements on the U.S. Department of State's website. U.S. citizens don't require transit visas to connect through Ireland into Europe.

For citizens of all other countries travelling from the U.S., requirements vary. It's your own personal responsibility to ensure you're in compliance with all relevant requirements, and you're advised to check with the Irish consulate for the correct information.
