The Common Travel Area (CTA; Irish: Comhlimistéar Taistil, Welsh: Ardal Deithio Gyffredin) is an open borders area comprising the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands. The British Overseas Territories are not included. Governed by non-binding agreements, the CTA maintains minimal border controls, allowing easy passage for British and Irish citizens with limited identity documentation, albeit with some exceptions. Sustaining the CTA requires cooperation between British and Irish immigration authorities.
In 2014, the British and Irish governments initiated a trial programme to recognise each other's visas for travel within the CTA. As of August 2022, this programme extends to Chinese and Indian nationals, albeit with restrictions on certain visa categories. Nationals of other countries and holders of non-qualifying visas must obtain separate visas for both countries and are not eligible for transit visa exceptions if travelling through the United Kingdom to Ireland.
Since 1997, the Irish government has implemented systematic identity checks on air travellers arriving from the United Kingdom and selective checks on sea travellers, with occasional checks at land borders.
