Bray applicants using the supported Ireland routes generally travel into Dublin for their visa appointment. The nearest listed centre is the German Embassy in Dublin, with an estimated driving distance of 10.1 miles and a journey time of about 21 minutes from Bray's named centre. Other supported destinations use Dublin embassy or consular offices, or the VFS Global centre on Francis Street. Availability changes, so applicants must confirm the official provider instructions and access information before travelling.
From Bray, the closest supported centre is the German Embassy, Dublin, at 31 Trimleston Avenue, Booterstown, Blackrock, Dublin A94 TX94. Its supplied estimate is a 10.1-mile driving distance and a 21-minute driving journey from the centre of Bray. Germany is the supported destination for this centre. Personal attendance is by appointment, and applicants should read the official booking guidance and check current access information before travelling.
Dublin also supports Italy through the Embassy of Italy at 63-65 Northumberland Road, an estimated driving distance of 11.8 miles and 25 minutes from Bray; France through the French Embassy Visa Office at 66 Fitzwilliam Lane, 12.4 miles and 27 minutes; and the Netherlands and Portugal through VFS Global Dublin at Cunningham House, 130 Francis Street, 13.8 miles and 30 minutes. Traffic, road closures and your starting point can change these estimates.
The four listed Dublin centres are spread across different addresses, so the destination and provider should guide where you travel. Germany is at Trimleston Avenue, Italy at Northumberland Road, France at Fitzwilliam Lane, and the VFS Global Dublin centre at Francis Street for the Netherlands and Portugal. Use the postcode or address supplied for your appointment, and recheck the official centre page because access details may change before your visit.
The supported Cancellation Finder routes from Bray cover Germany, Italy, France, the Netherlands and Portugal, all with Dublin as the application city. Select the destination that matches your visa application, then use the Cancellation Finder for updates on relevant appointment cancellations. Any email and SMS notification is a prompt to review the official booking page, not a substitute for provider instructions or appointment confirmation before making travel arrangements.
Read the official booking page for your destination before leaving Bray. Germany requires personal attendance by appointment, while Italy says appointments use its official system. The French guidance and VFS instructions should be followed for their respective applications.
Keep your appointment confirmation and destination-required documents together. The VFS Global Dublin guidance specifically says to arrive with both, while the German, Italian and French entries direct applicants to current appointment or visa-office guidance. Check each official page for the latest document instructions.
The supplied 10.1 to 13.8 mile figures and 21 to 30 minute timings are estimates from Bray's centre. Allow for traffic and road closures when planning, and remember that your actual starting point may produce a different journey.
Review the selected destination against the official booking page before making plans. The listed Dublin locations serve different countries, and the VFS Global centre covers the Netherlands and Portugal routes rather than the embassy routes for Germany, Italy or France.
