Country-Specific Brexit Information

Many changes that apply to UK nationals living and working in Europe will not apply to residents of Ireland during or after the Brexit transition. UK nationals' rights in Ireland are protected through the Common Travel Area (CTA), which is an arrangement between the UK and Ireland that provides many rights to citizens of both countries. The reciprocal agreement between the two countries permits free movement between the two nations for citizens of both countries. It also simplifies work and residency requirements.

Entry and Residency Requirements

UK nationals do not need a visa or residency permit to work, study, or live in Ireland before or after the Brexit transition. UK and Irish citizens can live, work, and travel freely to and from each other's countries under the Common Travel Area.
