You may also use this website. Enter your nationality, that you are an alien resident of the U.S.A. and your destination, and it will tell you if you need a visa. Go to second website for info on applying for a visa.

Citizens of the countries listed in the table below

You require a visa if you are not an EU/EEA citizen and your country is not listed below

China is not on the list so you will need to go to the Irish embassy and apply for a visa

If you are a Chinese national, you need a visa to enter any EEC country even if you have a green card that allows you to reside and work in the USA. China has not signed into the Schengen Agreement and there is no visa waver agreement in place as if you were an American citizen. I would contact the nearest Irish Consulate /Embassy immediately.

You need eight weeks before you travel, and you probably will have to delay your departure .
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

no as long as you have a valid passport, you can stay in ireland for up to 90 days without a visa. If i were you though i would check your local passport office or whatever its called in china and see if different regulations apply to china but i dont think they do. hope that helps

probably - check with the local passport office.

There's no point in asking questions like that here. You need to contact the Irish Embassy or Consulate in China, and they should be in your national telephone directory.

I think you probably do need some sort of a visa, but if you're only going to be in Ireland for 10 days, it shouldn't be too much hassle.
