Eff1n2ret Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Irish visa required. could she not go via northern ireland and then travel down to the south, as there is no border posts Whether there is a border post or not, she is legally required to have an Irish visa if she wishes to visit Ireland. In fact, even if she travelled by air from the UK, she would probably not encounter an Irish Immigration checkpoint. If she wishes to take the chance, then go ahead. But if anything goes wrong, som nam na. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
