The VFS Global Dublin Visa Application Centre is the nearest supported centre in the Limerick list.

The centre is linked to the Netherlands and Portugal routes. Its guidance asks applicants to bring the appointment confirmation and documents required for the destination.
Other supported Dublin options are close in distance but use different official offices. The French Embassy Visa Office at 66 Fitzwilliam Lane is listed at 123.8 miles and 140 minutes for France, the Embassy of Italy at 63-65 Northumberland Road is 124.3 miles and 141 minutes, and the German Embassy at 31 Trimleston Avenue is 130.7 miles and 147 minutes. The list is supported, not exhaustive.
Plan for Dublin as the appointment city and use the exact office named on the confirmation. VFS Global is at Cunningham House, 130 Francis Street; the French Visa Office is at 66 Fitzwilliam Lane; Italy is at 63-65 Northumberland Road; and Germany is at 31 Trimleston Avenue, Booterstown, Blackrock. These are separate locations, so do not treat a Dublin booking as an instruction for another office.
The supplied driving figures from Limerick's centre range from 122.8 miles and 138 minutes for the VFS Global office to 130.7 miles and 147 minutes for the German Embassy. Traffic, road closures and your actual starting point can change these estimates. Check the current official appointment instructions for the selected destination, then allow enough flexibility for the journey there and back from Limerick on the day.
Confirm whether your booking is with VFS Global or an embassy or consular office, then check its current access instructions. The listed Dublin locations differ, and the German Embassy guidance says personal attendance is by appointment.
Take the appointment confirmation and the documents required for your destination. For France, Italy and Germany, read the relevant official office guidance; for Netherlands or Portugal, use the VFS Global destination page. Do not assume one Dublin office has the same instructions as another.
