Hi,
My name is Santosh Sharma from India and currently based in Taiwan but I want to go to Ireland for my study this September and need a student visa to do so. However, there is no Ireland visa office or related consulate office in Taiwan to get my visa done. I am in trouble as even it is difficult to go back to India and apply for the same amid this pandemic.
