What a British passport needs

Entry rules change. Check the official page before you fly: an airline can refuse to board you without the right document.

Ireland No visa

British citizens need no visa for Ireland, because both countries are in the Common Travel Area. Arriving from Britain, the officer asks for nothing more once satisfied that you are a British citizen, so carry a document that shows your name and nationality, such as your passport. Airlines set their own photo ID rules for boarding.
