Additional Information
The gov.ie statement said that vaccine certificates based on booster/additional doses are not time limited, and that individuals who do not have proof of their vaccination status, or proof of having recovered from COVID-19 in the previous six months, are required to present evidence of a negative PCR test result from a test that was taken no more than 72 hours before their arrival in Ireland.
