Do you need an Irish visa if you already have a UK visa and will only visit Ireland on-board a cruise ship (without disembarking)?
I am joining my husband (who is currently working on a cruise ship) in June in the port of Liverpool, UK to cruise through Ireland, Schengen, Russia and Channel Islands. I finish the cruise in Amsterdam then flying to UK and stay there for a month.
I know for sure that I will need to apply for a multiple entry tourist visa for UK, but if i won't be going out in Irish Ports, do I still need a visa and what sort? Also, is there any way I can apply for all these visas at the same time?
I cruised in South Pacific before and I only applied for Australian visa multi-entry so it wasn't difficult at all and I used to be a seafarer as well and been to these places but obviously crew members have special application. But just wondering if there is an easy way to do it like through travel agents?
I am a Filipino Citizen.

You need a separate visa for the Republic of Ireland.
Citizens from some countries are allowed to enter the Republic of Ireland for stays less than 90 days if they have a regular UK short stay visitor visa (under the 'Short stay visa waiver programme'), but this programme does not cover Philippine citizens.

@phoog I know there are exceptions for cruise passengers in some countries, I am not so sure if there are exceptions in many countries. Not that the number of countries matters, there is AFAIK no such exception in any EU or Schengen country. Quite common are simplified immigration checks for cruise passengers, but the practical implementation of these is usually that the cruise line is trusted with identity verification and that immigration control by the authorities is done based on a passenger manifest. The passengers must still fulfill regular immigration requirements.
