The Government is applying more stringent measures applying to international travel in order to mitigate against the risk of new variants being imported through travel and to protect the progress we are making in suppressing transmission domestically.
While the Government advises against non-essential international travel, there is no particular prohibition on travel to Ireland.
However anyone who arrives to the State having been overseas, with very limited exemptions, is required to complete a COVID-19 Passenger Locator Form, to present evidence of a negative / non-detected pre-departure RT-PCR test taken within 72 hours of arrival and to observe mandatory quarantine.
