All persons travelling between the UK and Ireland require valid passports.
This includes children and infants of all ages.
A valid passport must be presented at the border control point when entering or leaving the UK or Ireland.
Failure to present a valid passport may result in denied entry to the country.
In addition to a valid passport, other documents may be required depending on the purpose of travel and length of stay.
For example, if travelling for work or study purposes, a visa or work permit may be required.
If staying in Ireland for more than 90 days, a residence permit may be required.
It is important to check the latest entry requirements for Ireland before travel to ensure all necessary documents are obtained in advance.
