Re: Irish Passport renewal

Just curious, but what is the advantage of travelling on an Irish Passport by British Citizens.? Although my Mother and her parents were all born in the south but moved North prior to the first World War they had British Passports, myself have Canadian and British passports but guess I would be entitled to an Irish passport as well but whats the advantage????

Re: Irish Passport renewal

Hi Mauri,After a long reply the sight is up to its old tricks again it vanished! The demand for an Irish Passport is Britain leaving EEC which will make the Brit passport alein in Europe were as the Irish one is European and a permit will not be required to travel within EEC countries ,that's the theory at the moment as they don't know what the hell they are doing in Westminster ,Mauri hope this finds yourself and Joy well ,are you's heading for any warm destinations in the near future ? Regards Ted

Re: Irish Passport renewal

Hi Ted, Thanks for your info re the passports. They sure seem to be in a muddle in the British Parliment re their exit from the ECM should never have taken that vote re staying in or out, will be interesting to see what the final outcome will be.

No Joy and myself have no travel plans at present, those days are over?, we had an apartment in Florida for about twelve years and also done upteen cruises to the Carribean,Baltic,Mediteranean,Alaska and the North Cape which included ports in Ireland and Scotland all of these cruises were out of New York and Florida "Those were the days" All Best Wishes.
