Are dual Irish/British citizens bound by the 90/180 day rule when travelling in the EU after Brexit? - Bridge Under The Blue Sky

I have dual citizenship - Irish/British - and have passports for both countries.

Am I bound by the 90/180 day rule when travelling in the EU after Brexit?



Best Answer

Because of your dual citizenship, you are in the position of being able to effectively ignore the border control aspects of Brexit. No matter what happens, you will still have the right to enter both the UK and the EU without restrictions.

The only thing that could change this is if Ireland chooses to leave the EU, too. This does not seem likely at this point.
