ARCHIVED - Ireland drops all Covid travel restrictions
Travellers arriving in Ireland will no longer have to complete a Passenger Locator Form
In a move that has been hailed as a major boost for the local tourism sector, Ireland has scrapped all Covid travel restrictions, including the need to complete a Passenger Locator Form (PLF) prior to arrival from Spain and other countries worldwide. In addition, as of March 6, arrivals to the Emerald Isle will no longer have to show proof of vaccination, recovery from coronavirus or a negative Covid-19 test, whether they are jabbed or not.
It has not been a requirement to wear a face mask in pubs and restaurants in Ireland since February 28, but the government still recommends them in healthcare settings and on public transport.
“From Sunday, 6 March 2022, travellers to Ireland are not required to show proof of vaccination, proof of recovery or a negative PCR test result upon arrival,” confirmed the Irish government.
“There are no post-arrival testing or quarantine requirements for travellers to Ireland. Travel carriers will not ask to check a PLF receipt prior to travel to Ireland.
“Any individual that develops Covid-19 symptoms while in Ireland should follow the HSE (Health Service Executive) guidance in relation to isolation and undertaking antigen or PCR testing as appropriate.”
