ofcourse no problem at all
There is no restrictions between N Ireland and the Republic of Ireland in travelling
Jaysus, what century do ya think this is?
You do not need a visa and there is no border between the Republic and the North now. There isn’t even a sign that says ‘You are now in the North’ or vice versa. And, by the way, you’ll enjoy Belfast now – it’s very cosmopolitan.
In UK law regardless of how you travel there, you need a visa to enter the UK – if you want to take the risk that’s up to you but you risk being barred from entering both the UK the Republic of Ireland if you get caught.
edit: citizens of Saudi Arabia need visas to enter the Republic of Ireland the UK as tourists, not just to live work in either country
Whoever is giving me the thumbs down, you may think I’m spoiling someone’s craic perhaps someone even thinks they’re giving the finger to the British by doing this but at the end of the day it is the questioner taking the risk, not you
If you need a visa for the Republic then you’ll need one for NI BUt I’d imagine you are travelling as a tourist and would not need one in that case.
Best to have some sort of ID tho.
yep. Just grab a train or a bus. By the way, what is r=1252502955?
of Course, dont even be worrying about it!you can pop up to Belfast anytime…im not promising it will be worth it though!
but i reccommend going to see where the titanic was made!
Ireland and the U.K. (of which Northern Ireland is a part of) have a common travel area but it’s ONLY for Irish and British citizens.
Even though you’re very unlikely to be stopped at the border, as it’s only done on a very selective basis, the fact remains that, as a citizen of a third-country, if you enter Ireland with the intent of travelling on the the U.K., or the you do something that violates the Aliens Order, then no, you most likely can’t travel to Northen Ireland without permission. Similarily, an Irish immigration officer would have the right to refuse you re-entry into the Republic on any of the grounds you could be refused on if travelling from outside the Common Travel Area. Again, it’s extremely unlikely, but not impossible.
If you’re from Saudi Arabia, and are in Ireland legally, you must have been registered with the Garda National Immigration Bureau (GNIB). Since the definitive answer is going to depend on your personal circumstances, you should ask your local GNIB officer. (Just ask at your local Garda Station if you don’t know how to get in touch with them).
Of course you will need a visa. Northern Ireland is part of the Uk a totally different country to R.O.I. Some of these answers are incredible in their belief that Ireland is one country. Education in southern Irelkand seems to lack the geography of their own country. If you are stopped by police in Belfast explain how you got there .
jump on the train at Connoly station, all you need is pounds, shillings and pence….
yawn this makes the 1 millionth time this question has been asked.
I was informed by one solicitor in Northern Ireland that if you have a visa/permission to live in Ireland Republic then you should have no problem to visit Northern Ireland for up to three months owing to Common Travel Ground agreement in this matter between UK and Ireland Republic. But the individual (a third national) would not be able to go beyond the Irelands., to Scotland or England.
