Entry requirements

EU nationals do not require a passport as long as they carry an ID card (a driver's licence will suffice for Brits). EU nationals also do not require a visa for stays up to 90 days. Visas for longer stays are normally granted to EU or US citizens without too much bother; you can contact the Irish Embassy for details:
