愛爾蘭GNIB 註冊預計將在2016年的9月開始使用線上預約的方式囉,恭喜各位同學不需要再排隊拉～
近日，愛爾蘭警察局主頁和移民局主頁上同時發布了一條消息：GNIB卡辦理將有新變動，新的網上預約系統正在升級維護，將於九月初正式開始運作，也就是說，從此以後，GNIB卡的辦理可以在網上預約了。
那麼是不是從此以後咱外鄉人真的告別了凌晨排隊的噩夢了呢？根據移民局主頁上發布的信息明確的表示新的網上排號系統上線之後咱可以按照自己合適的時間選擇辦理GNIB卡，並且”再也不用排隊了”。
警察局發布的相關信息指出，都柏林移民局每年都會接受辦理10萬個GNIB卡註冊，每年來愛求學的學生就有3萬餘人需要辦理GNIB卡，雖然移民局每天從早上開到晚上，甚至午餐也不休息輪班辦理業務但是還是會在GNIB辦理高峰期（尤其是每年開學季）導致學生和需要辦理GNIB的移民熬夜排隊，有時甚至會造成“一號難求”，排了一個通宵卻被告知號發完了的情況，警察局稱這種結果是他們不願意看到的，也是沒有實際意義的，所以警察局聯手移民局決定升級系統開啟網上預約辦理GNIB卡業務。
但是各位同學要注意，網上預約的只是到都柏林移民局辦理GNIB卡的時間，本人還是要帶著各種證明文件親自去移民局辦理的，而且此GNIB卡網上預約只針對都柏林的居民，除了都柏林外其他地區的同學辦理GNIB卡還是跟之前一樣，要去當地的移民局辦理。
GNIB 全稱Garda National Immigration Bureau，是一張能證明你在愛爾蘭有合法身份的重要證件，相當於身份證。所以，日後辦理旅行簽證，出入愛爾蘭在海關都有可能需要用到這張“身份證”。GNIB卡是所有在愛爾蘭長期學習工作生活（通常指停留三個月以上）的非歐盟人士需要辦理的，如果是短期旅行，探親訪友，暑期夏令營停留三個月以內的學生或家長們，不需要辦理GNIB.
從事短期觀光、洽商或遊學者，直接由移民官依需求核給90天內之停留期限，
若停留超過90天，則由移民官先核發2至4週之停留期限(實際停留期限依依民官為主)，期間再赴移民警察局（Garda National Immigration Bureau,簡稱GNIB）申辦長期居留登記卡（Certificate of Registration）。
因此，若將再愛爾蘭遊學超過90天以上，就需要前往GNIB移民警察局註冊申辦愛爾蘭居留證。

英文原文如下：
New online appointment system for immigration registration
No more queues. No more tickets. Clear appointment times.
A new online system for booking appointments for immigration registration at Burgh Quay (Dublin) will launch this autumn.
If you register at an office outside Dublin, you will not need to use this system.
How to book an appointment for Burgh Quay
To make an appointment go to http://burghquayregistrationoffice.inis.gov.ie/ （手動打開）
Appointments are offered in a series of 1-hour slots each day.
Select the date and a time that suits you and make the appointment.
After you have made the appointment, you will receive a confirmation by email. Bring a copy of this email with you on the day of your appointment.
The confirmation email also contains a link to a list of documents you must bring.
On the day of your appointment please arrive 10 minutes early. If you are late, you may not be seen.
To use the new system you will need your:
Passport number (if applicable)
GNIB Card number (if you already have one)
All other registration documentation remains the same.
Note: If you are renewing your immigration registration, make sure to select an appointment date that falls within the 2 week period before your GNIB card expires.
Burgh Quay office changes
The new system is expected to launch in late August and will offer appointments for early September.
At that point, the existing early morning ticketing system at the Burgh Quay office will end and all appointments will have to be made via the website. It will no longer be possible to make an appointment by queuing at the office.
This initiative is occurring as part of the transfer of Registration Office administration from GNIB to INIS. It is the first step in an ongoing process to improve customer service.
Note: If you do not have access to the internet or if you need assistance to book an appointment, contact your local Citizens Information Centre.
