How many people don’t know that immigration to Irish is equivalent to immigration to the UK. Historically, the relationship between the UK and Ireland is shaped by historical events they have experienced together. Ireland was ruled by Britain for hundreds of years, reaching its peak in the 1921 War of Independence and the Anglo-Ireland Treaty. The treaty led to the establishment of the Free State of Ireland and established many legal provisions to protect the free movement of British and Irish citizens, which laid the foundation for the Common Tourism Zone Agreement (CTA).

According to the CTA, British and Ireland citizens are free to migrate and settle in any jurisdiction and enjoy the rights and privileges associated with it. The right to peer is as follows:

The right to enter and live in another country

The right to work freely in another country

The right to get education

The right to accept social welfare

The right to receive medical services

The right to obtain social housing

The right to vote for election

The agreement was signed long before the UK and Ireland joined EU , and neither the UK nor Ireland are EU member states. In May 2019, the UK and Ireland governments signed a memorandum of cooperation reaffirming their commitment to safeguarding the CTA and its associated rights and privileges under any circumstances, which will remain unchanged after Brexit.

According to the EU Treaty, citizens of each member state are citizens of the EU and can live, work and study in any country in the EU and have unlimited freedom of movement. After Brexit , citizens of other EU member states must apply for a visa or permanent residence status to enter and leave the UK, while the CTA allows Irish citizens to enter and leave the UK to live, study and work freely. In other words, Irish nationality = free living in the UK + free living in 27 EU countries.
