Can a child travel to Ireland from UK without passport? Citizens of Ireland and Britain under the age of 16 don't need a photo ID if travelling with their parent/guardian. Citizens of countries other than Ireland and Britain must produce a valid passport and visa where applicable for travel between Ireland and Britain.
But how can the officer verify the children are with their parent/guardian if they don't have proof of ID, so in this case I don't blame the officer for asking. The British lady was just being difficult.
That's not true, you can only enter Ireland via northern Ireland without a passport from England/Scotland/Wales. If you come through the republic - you have to have a passport, how else can they know for sure that the kids are theirs....
@@Alexandra_Hill Not true, the UK and ROI are in the Common Travel Area, citizens from either country can enter via air and sea using most forms of identification (even a company issued work pass or bus pass is OK, although some airlines like Ryanair still insist on passport despite these rules). Those under 16 do not require ID if travelling with their parents. No ID is required to travel between the UK and ROI through the land border.
Having a passport to travel by air from UK to Ireland , Ryanair policy you need a passport ,are Lingus a current identity document , normally valid driving licence,
3:33 It's shocking that the “Detective” doesn't know about the common travel area and the ID requirements (or lack of requirements). Also the National Immigration Bureau does have a website, it's part of Garda website 🙈 that officer needs training.
Also, if he truly believed that the children needed passports, why did he let them in anyway? He is a typical power hungry minion that likes to flex on people to big himself up.
@@eringobreathtiocfaidharla1446 Just for clarification, I didn't claim that Lisbon Airport was the most westerly airport in Europe, it's not even the most westerly airport in mainland Portugal, or in Lisbon for that matter. Cascais Airport is further west. My point was that Shannon is definitely not the most westerly airport in Europe. Keflavik is on the North American tectonic plate, so geographically technically not in Europe, even though I personally would consider all of Iceland as being a part of Europe. Keflavik is not the most westerly airport in Iceland, both Isafjördur and Thingeyri are further west. Even further west, you have all of the airports in the Azores, some of which are on the Eurasian tectonic plate.
You are liable to get a full custody check anywhere in the USA. My brother in law was driving from Florida to Chicago and he got stopped in Tennessee and it was full customs check. Took 5 hours..
Yes the same can happen anywhere in the Schengen Area. You are obliged to be able to identify yourself using one of the recognised means of identification and justify your presence within the area, if asked and furthermore the burden of proof is on you, not the authorities.
Back in early 90’s no passport needed US>Canada. Our kids were pulled aside so they could talk to them and verify we were their parents. Good job Canada❤
One would get the impression from this video that the custom checks in Ireland are severe and implemented. This is not the case. Illegal migrants fly into Irish airports daily and then have NO documentation despite it being necessary to have documentation when boarding a flight. Also there are no border checks AT ALL between the UK controlled northern part of the country and the southern part or Republic of Ireland.
Need to re-instate a hard border between the Republic and the North of Ireland, and also controls across all of the Irish Sea, including between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK.
"UK controlled northern part of the country " ah what????, 1) the island of ireland has two different countries on it Northern Ireland (which i assume you are referring to which is part of the United Kingdom ) and Ireland aka the Republic of Ireland

Very poor of the officer suggesting that any visitors from the UK including children should have a passport. That’s just incorrect. He needs to learn the rules and change his attitude. For one thing, the Aer Lingus website does say that children don’t need photo ID when travelling with their parent/ guardian. The immigration section of the Irish Government’s website also has information about the Common Travel Area, and it says that a person who is entitled to avail of the CTA can show their boarding card to the officer for immigration.
Aer Lingus are wrong, even the UK FCO says "If you are a British citizen, you do not need a passport to enter Ireland. HOWEVER, some carriers and airlines might require identification. Irish immigration officers check the ID of all passengers arriving by air from the UK and might ask for proof of British nationality, particularly if you were born outside the UK. You should take your British passport with you.
@@leo1766 yes, but that doesn’t mean that you must have a passport. While it may make it easier, it’s not a requirement as also confirmed by the Irish government’s guidance. The question around the children requiring ID is slightly different (and imo the passenger was perfectly reasonable in going with what Aer Lingus say) but the broader point is the officer’s comments on passports being misguided and unfairly harsh on the passenger.
That is why children are now required to have separate travel documents, firstly you have to have the application verified, by a commissioner of oaths, and only with that verification will you be able to obtain travel documents from the passport office.
10:17 I, heard it mentioned once: "two countries" how messed up is that. England, Scotland and Wales are not split in two, geographically. Look deep into the history of Ireland and all it reveals. Invasion, genocide, deliberate starvation of the indigenous population, dating back to at least the 13th century. Times were so bad, at one point, a native American tribe stepped in to help the Irish and save them. The close bond that was formed exists to this day. Response to video only.
how is it messedup?, Northern Ireland is part of the UK because its people (and i am one of them) want to be part of the UK, going from your dumb comment no doubt you are american,
Blah, blah, blah. There was a vote on becoming an independent country. In 26 counties, the treaty making Ireland independent was approved. In six northern counties, it was defeated. The six northern counties remained a part of the United Kingdom because they wished to remain a part of the United Kingdom. Since then, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland have grown even further apart. There is very much a Northern Irish identity. People from Northern Ireland are both Irish and British. They can have Irish passports, British passports -- or both. What you are doing is denying the legitimate right of people in Northern Ireland to define themselves, to determine their own status and destiny due to a nationalist narrative which has excluded dissident voices. The reality is, is that there is little appetite to approach Northern Ireland's constitutional status on either side of the border. Northern Ireland is a drain on British finances and a security challenge. It would utterly overwhelm the Republic of Ireland.
If you're fleeing for protection from your country of origin, no proof of ID, PASSPORTS, NO LETTER OF SPONSORS you can breeze in. Next you find yourself in a cosy and comfortable accommodation. It's great Irish welcome for these SCAMMERS, thanks to Helen McEntee .
Yes exactly more propaganda is right if these checks were so great how come so many pass through without documents and identification what a load of bollox
Once again we see people from the UK forced unnecessarily through passport control. There is a common travel zone between the UK and Ireland and UK airports make the effort so that people travelling from Ireland do not have to go through passport control. A complete waste of the passengers time. It is just jobs for the boys and hassle for the public. So much for the Irish government gripes about Brexit and free movement over the border!
not sure how much you travel overseas but when you do enter another country i am pretty sure that you will not get in without the proper documents, i don't see it as jobs for the boys as you say but as a necessary check to keep me safe, i travel a lot to the dominican republic and my passport was lost in the post so i had a new one and when i arrived in the DR i was questioned about my passport as it was only a few months since my last visit, i had to explain to the DR FBI that my old passport was lost and luckily i had all the confirmation emails from the passport office in the UK, and as for passengers waste of time i have never got back in the UK without going through passport control, to me border security is so important and any checks are a good thing,
It grates.... There is no country called 'Southern Ireland' - it's called Ireland - just Ireland. There is no country called 'Northern Ireland' - it's a 6 county gerrymandered statelet. It's called Euro not Euros.
Ireland is not the gateway to the U.K., it is the other way around, due to the constant abuses of the Common Travel Area at the Port of Holyhead - I’ve lived in Manchester U.K. 22 years, I’ve always held an Irish Passport and travel by Coach/Train and Ferry to Dublin - the Common Travel Area needs to be dispensed with post-Brexit and Post-Covid - there needs to be full immigration and customs checks at Holyhead and at Dublin Ports, including full searches and immigration interviews, just like at airports and with full airport security - visas to travel between the U.K. and Ireland should be mandatory, which must be applied for well in advance, as it’s a serious weak point in terms of immigration and security
Hmmm, I’m kind of only seeing them smile when they’re dealing with fellow Irish…. I don’t see the same smiles when they’re dealing with any people of colour…
Its funny though. They only seem to target er.... i mean stop the northern ireland reg vehicle's. I was a run down to cork once in a hire van. They was "road works" on the motorway and filtered down to one lane but it wasnt road works it was a check point and needless to say i got pulled. While sitting in the layby i noticed everything pulled in was a northern reg car or truck and it wasnt in louth this was not far from cork.
Dublin port is an absolute kip , no parking for Lorry's anywhere expect the circle k which they force you into and only garage in Ireland you've to pay to park a lorry ,, the t10/11 parks are open 24/7 for customs and could easily park 1000 trucks , but no , not allowed , a absolute disgrace driving lads over hours who come off the boat on a split break etc with no where safe to park within 30-1 hour drive....double yellow lines and huge pointless paths everywhere
Probably less so today. But in former times the Brits had a heavy investment in legally trafficking 1 or 2 "persons of colour" (they used a different word back then) to "a new life" in "the New World"! 🙄
When a show about your country's border enforcement is at the point where the most shocking/serious event to showcase for the video thumbnail is 'illegal parking' - A) your country is doing pretty well B) Probably not worth making a show about border enforcement
There is whats know as the common travel area between Ireland /Eire and the UK .It goes back many years and still stands .Many times i travel from Dublin to the UK without a passport but i do need some form of ID .
So a northern irish company receives a court summons from southern Ireland for no haulage licence..lol..it means nothing as South Ireland laws don't apply in Northern Ireland.. lol
