Visa & Entry

British passport holders enter Ireland freely with no visa, no time limit, and no immigration controls under the Common Travel Area (CTA) agreement. The CTA predates both the EU and Brexit and remains fully in force. UK nationals have the right to live, work, and access public services in Ireland without a visa or permit. No passport stamp is issued.

Airlines and ferries require photo ID for boarding. A UK passport, Irish passport, or UK driving license works for flights. Technically, there are no immigration checks on the Ireland-Northern Ireland land border or on flights/ferries between the UK and Ireland. In practice, spot checks by immigration officers occur at Dublin Airport on some UK arrivals. Carry your passport for positive identification.

Direct flights from London to Dublin run about 1 hour 15 minutes, with routes from most UK regional airports on Ryanair, Aer Lingus, and British Airways. Dublin is also accessible by ferry from Holyhead (3 hours 15 minutes, Irish Ferries/Stena Line). Ireland uses the euro. UK pounds are not accepted in shops but can be exchanged at any bank. No vaccination requirements. UK driving licenses are fully valid in Ireland. Mobile phone roaming is charged at standard rates since Brexit ended the EU roaming regulation for UK users.
