Young children and vaccinated adults will no longer need a PCR test when border reopens on 19 July
Irish families with young children have finally been told they will be free to travel without PCR tests when the border reopens for non-essential travel on 19 July.
In an update to its website, the Irish government made clear that vaccinated adults would not have to provide a PCR test or quarantine on entry. It has also loosened the rules for children over seven to bring them into line with the rest of the EU, eliminating the prohibitive costs of Covid tests for under-12s.
