The Embassy of Ireland in the UAE works closely with Irish state agencies to promote trade, tourism and inward investment. The Ambassador chairs the local market team.
We can:
- Support Irish companies who want to find and access new markets
- Provide general advice on doing business locally and, through our network of contacts, pursue export and investment opportunities that will benefit Ireland
- Work to secure market access for Irish products in key sectors in high-growth and emerging markets
Working with the right expertise in relevant state agencies is part of our successful strategy.
