Hi.
Has anyone recently travelled to Northern Ireland and did you need a passport?
I am planning a visit but my passport has expired and I don't particularly want to get it renewed as I don't travel anywhere outside the UK. I was given to understand from some sites that a driving licence and means of identification would suffice so any thoughts ?

"Irish Ferries recommend all passengers bring a passport with them. Irish and British citizens do not strictly require a passport to travel between the two countries - some form of identification is however required. Please note that all nationalities except Irish or British require passports."...

Thanks so much for all the replies. I am taking a ferry from Cairnryan to Larne so I should be fine with driving licence and council tax statement
Exactly Spath you assume wrong, you give booking reference and they give you the boarding card they do not ask for ID, in fact the last 3 times I haven’t even given them the booking references they have just scanned the car number plate
Have a lovely time :)
You won’t need the council tax letter sweetie

Airport security.... Cmon RR keep up.
The lady made it clear early on she was travelling by ferry Spath!

Yep, but i mentioned airport security before we knew that, which is what i was in response to.
Thank you for the "Best Answer" Jenufa my BA's are now old enough to have a pint in the USA :)
Jeez....Spath. You're wrong, accept it. Either travelling to the north or south it is not a legal requirement to have a passport (I assume that's for UK passport holders) it's down to the airline.

Photo ID on the ferry will suffice.
OK, no problem.
