Before you fly: visas, currency and practical tips
Thanks to the Common Travel Area between the UK and Ireland, Irish citizens do not need a visa, ETA or passport check to travel between the two countries.
The UK currency is the pound sterling (GBP), not the Euro (EUR). Card payments are accepted almost everywhere in London, but check with your bank about foreign transaction fees, and confirm the current exchange rate closer to your departure date rather than relying on an old figure.
Because of the Common Travel Area, Irish visitors often move quickly through UK arrivals — tell us your flight number so your driver is ready the moment you land.
