View answerRequests for diplomatic clearance for the landing of foreign military aircraft must be accompanied by certain information. Details of the location of the aircraft in the days prior to the proposed flight to Ireland are not requested.
Health requirements relating to persons who have been in a category 2 State in the period of fourteen days prior to their arrival in Ireland are the same for arrivals by military aircraft as they are for those who arrive by civilian aircraft and are separate from the matter of diplomatic clearance.
