An Irish passport is valid for travel up until the date of expiry. In general, a passport should not expire during the proposed term of any visit. However, some countries require a minimum validity on passports to enter their jurisdictions. The Spanish Embassy in Dublin have confirmed that an Irish passport is valid for travel to Spain and the Canary Islands until the date of expiry in the document.
