The obligations placed on international passengers under SI No. 135/2021 apply equally to passengers who have travelled from the USA or Canada.
Those arriving with an accepted proof of vaccination or recovery are not required to undergo any further testing or quarantine requirements upon arrival. Passengers who have travelled without valid proof of vaccination or recovery are required to observe a 14-day home quarantine at the address given on their Passenger Locator Form. The quarantine period can be shortened if the person obtains a negative result from a PCR test taken no sooner than day 5 after arrival.
Travel policy is kept under review based on the epidemiological situation and public health advice.
