Covid Testing for International Travel into and out of Ireland: Discussion

Mr. Keith Comiskey:

In regard to the Deputy's question on the passenger locator form, passengers either to or from Ireland should be aware of the obligations that apply to them when they travel. In terms of our national regulations, we can only oblige passengers who are travelling to Ireland to complete our passenger location forms. We cannot oblige passengers who are travelling to Belfast to complete a passenger locator form. However passengers arriving in the State, having been off-island, are required to complete a passenger location form. In the case of a passenger who travels from off the island to the Republic of Ireland via Belfast, he or she would be required to complete a passenger locator form and have that available, but that would be separate to his or her obligation to complete the requirements for arriving in Belfast.
