Travel Info Do i need a passport travel from the UK to Republic of Ireland???? Travel Tips You do NOT need a passport to travel between the UK and RoI (you can just drive back and forward between Northern Ireland, which is in the UK, and the Republic without even noticing you've crossed a border - all this stuff about it being a different country etc does not apply in this case). HOWEVER, you WILL need a passport or photo identification such as a driving licence to board an aircraft or a boat, so you need to check with your transport provider what their requirements are. Source(s): Recent personal experience Other Travel Tips Yes. It's a different country. Yes. I went there a couple of years back and had to go thru customs. yes I assume you are British. If so, in theory no, in reality yes. In the EU, as a member you can travel between Member States with only your ID card. But, as (unlike the rest of Europe) we don't have them, the only accepted from of ID is a passport. I quote from the relevant authority: "All Union citizens have the right to enter another Member State by virtue of having an identity card or valid passport. Under no circumstances can an entry or exit visa be required. Where the citizens concerned do not have travel documents, the host Member State must afford them every facility in obtaining the requisite documents or having them sent." Given that this is THE definitive answer, it is difficult to imagine why some MORON has given it the thumbs down. There is no point giving sensible advice on here if such imbeciles decry it. http://europa.eu/scadplus/leg/en/lvb/l33... |
