CHILDREN AGED UNDER 12 won’t need to take a PCR test when entering the State from next week.

This rule currently applies to those aged under seven, however, Cabinet approved the change today to bring Ireland in line with other EU countries.

Ireland is to reopen to international travel from 19 July.

Hundreds of thousands of people are set to receive their Digital Covid Cert from today and over the coming weeks.

The Digital Covid Cert is proof that travellers have been fully vaccinated; have received a negative test result; or have recovered from the virus.

It was confirmed today, after some confusion at government level, the those who have had Covid-19 in the last six months who wish to travel will be able to contact a call centre which will then issue a recovery certificate.
