England to NI via Wales/Ireland ferry?

CL16Fan

Hello,

I'm trying to work out the rules around testing / quarantine for a trip we want to make in early September. We are both British, and reside in England. We're also getting our second jabs this weekend. We have a credit for a ferry trip to Ireland from Wales, and our destination on the other end is Northern Ireland.

Looking at the following websites:

• https://www.gov.ie/en/publication/77952-government-advice-on-international-travel/
  
• https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/ireland/coronavirus
  
• https://www.nidirect.gov.uk/articles/coronavirus-covid-19-travelling-within-common-travel-area
  

My interpretation is:

• Need to complete the passenger locator form before getting the ferry over from Wales to Dublin
  
• No need for quarantine
  
• No need for tests
  

My questions are:

• How do we prove we're double jabbed?
  
• Have I completely misinterpreted the rules and actually we do need to quarantine / test? If so, we probably won't make the trip. It's not the end of the world - we just have a cancelled trip from last year we're keen to use for a change of scenery!
  

Thank you so much for your help, and hopefully this thread will be useful for anyone else who, in hindsight, should have booked a ferry straight to NI.
