Once entered, a certified copy of the entry is issued (a small A5 certificate bearing a signature and the stamp of authenticity from the authority responsible for having made the entry e.g. Irish Diplomatic Mission). This certificate is handwritten on specially produced security paper which incorporates an intricate turquoise pattern design and may be used as proof of Irish citizenship when applying for a passport without any further proof of citizenship being required. A statutory fee is charged for access to this facility (somewhere in the region of EUR 135, STG 88 or USD 174) and processing times vary from around three to eighteen months depending on the location and workload of the embassy/consulate concerned, or if registered by a resident in Ireland, the Department Of Foreign Affairs in Dublin .
