27 April 2021 – Exemptions for parents travelling with newborn babies
All families travelling with new-born babies (no more than 28 days old), including those who have travelled to a designated state for the purpose of surrogacy, do not have to complete mandatory hotel quarantine when you come to Ireland.
However, all travellers still have to have a negative pre-departure RT-PCR test and complete a period of self-quarantine at home or wherever you specified in your passenger locator form.
If you would like to discuss how his will impact upon your own particualr circumstances, please do not hesitate to contact the Surrogacy & Fertility law team at Poe Kiely Hogan Lanigan Solicitors.
