Yes, but the original poster is going to Ireland, so he or she won't be going by train. Ireland and the UK form together the Common Travel Area (so called) and there are not routine passport checks between the two countries.Anastasia wrote:They will defiantly ask to see your passport when you leave and re-enter the UK. I tried it 2 weeks ago. You will not get on that eurotrain without showing your passport !
Whether they stamp it or not I am not sure. Most countries in the EU no longer put stamps in passports. Generally they should’nt even have immigration control, but the UK is so insistent on it. With the terrorist i guess i dont blame them.
Uk is the hardest country to get in out of all the EU countries from what i have heard.

But you don't go through passport control if you're flying to Ireland, do you? It's treated as if it were a domestic flight.supertiger wrote:If you get into Ireland by train or road they may not check or stamp but they will definitely check and stamp on yr passport if u fly to Dublin. and same when you come back to UK, no check when you leave here though.
Most EU countries still stamp but many are not strict if you do or do not do a landing card. apart from swizterland I don;t know any other countries do not stamp, but swizterland is not EU.
That's right. And certainly until recently there was no immigration control on flights between the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. Perhaps that has changed recently, I don't know. Latterly, passports have sometimes been looked at on arrival in Ireland, but not routinely and, even when they are, not as systematically as when arriving in Ireland from outside the Common Travel Area.JAJ wrote:Security check maybe, but there is no immigration control on domestic United Kingdom flights.Anastasia wrote:My work partner had to fly to Newcastle from London he said he got checked out.
