JoeS Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I didn't need a passport to get on the boat at Holyhead to go to Dun Laoghaire, just my photocard driving license. Might be different with planes as you need to pass through passport control no matter where you get off. Also... psst... Dublin is not in the UK... it's in Ireland and a completely different country.

JFKvsNixon Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I don't think that legally you need a UK passport to enter the Republic of Ireland, the airlines or ferries might insist on you having one as part of their terms and conditions of travel.

Pat Butcher Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 UK citizens do not require a passport or visa to enter republic Ireland or northen ireland, but most carriers by air or sea now require some form of identification with photograph (usually either a passport or driving licence with photo. I go four times a year and never had passport in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul2412 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I would have thought you would have needed one for Dublin as its not part of the UK. Similar to going to France. Belfast you wouldn't, but Dublin you would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think about it that would mean that on the border areas, people would need a passport to nip between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland to go to the shops.
