Austria citizens can enter Ireland without a visa and live there under freedom of movement. You only need a valid Austria passport at the border; immigration officers may still ask for a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and enough money for your stay.
Whatever your visa status, Ireland applies the same entry conditions to every traveller:
Ireland lets 75 passports in without a visa and requires an embassy visa from 123. Austria citizens are treated the same way as Andorra, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia and Cyprus. Overall the Austria passport ranks #14 in the world with 123 visa-free destinations.
Planning a longer trip in Europe? With a Austria passport you can also visit 44 countries in the region without a visa, including Andorra, Albania, Armenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Belgium, Bulgaria, Belarus and Switzerland.
In the other direction, Ireland citizens can visit Austria visa-free.

The Minister may make a deportation order against a person who, in the Minister's opinion, has broken a restriction or condition of their landing, entry or leave to stay. The order requires the person to leave the State within the period it sets and to stay out of the State afterwards.
