Vaccines and safety in Ireland

Vaccines and local diseases

No vaccine is required for visitors. The European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) certifies your rights to health insurance in Europe. During a temporary stay in a Member State of the European Union, it allows you to benefit from the medically necessary care. It is recommended that you take out additional insurance.

Security in Ireland

Ireland is a safe country but tourists can be victims of theft, especially in tourist areas. Flights occur mainly in pubs, cybercafés, buses, airport shuttles, hostels, in the parking lots of tourist attractions and on public roads. You should remain vigilant and monitor your belongings. In addition, before you leave, consider visiting the travel advice section of the France Diplomatie website.

Health insurance and repatriation in Ireland

Why take international health insurance when travelling or residing in Ireland? Simply because health spending quickly reaches very high amounts abroad. In addition, the repatriation guarantee is an essential criterion. In the event of a serious accident it is sometimes necessary to carry out a medicalized repatriation to the nearest medical centre or to the country of residence. Depending on where you are at the time of the accident, and depending on the medical prognosis, it may be necessary to Charter a helicopter or a medicalized aircraft.
