It is also recommended that you take a LFD test on days two and eight of your stay (if applicable).

 

You should not travel to Northern Ireland if you have COVID-19 symptoms, or have received a positive COVID-19 result.

 

There are no quarantine requirements when travelling from England or Scotland to Northern Ireland

 

You do not need to fill in a Passenger Locator Form if you’re travelling from within the CTA and you have not been outside the CTA in the last 10 days.
