How to rent a car in Ireland? Is it easy to get an Irish visa?

There must be some friends who want to travel to Ireland. Today, Xiaobian will tell you some information about car rental in Ireland. Now you can take a closer look at the relevant information and visa information, and you can also have a look. Visa

You know, Ireland is a separate country, which does not belong to Britain, and it became independent only after fierce struggle. Even the problem of Northern Ireland has not been solved until now. Britain thinks Northern Ireland is British territory, while Irish people think Northern Ireland is a part of Ireland, but it has not been recaptured from the British, so this political issue is very sensitive in the local area, and there are armed forces like the Irish army and similar terrorist organizations.

It is recommended to apply for a British visa and fly into Ireland from England or Scotland. The reason for this is that the air ticket through London is cheap, and you can have a rest, play in London and do some shopping. After all, London is much bigger than Belfast and Dublin. Secondly, direct flights to Ireland require a separate visa, but if you live in England or Scotland, you can have a British visa, and you don't need special customs inspection, whether you enter Ireland by land or from the airport.

If you enter Ireland by land or sea, whether you take a boat from Glasgow or Liverpool or drive from Belfast, it's almost like traveling in a country. No special border or customs are closed, and no one will check your passport and visa. It's the same as traveling in Schengen.

If you fly from Britain (no matter which city) and arrive at Dublin Airport, as long as you have a valid British visa, the customs will immediately release you, almost like domestic tourism, and you will not be asked for an Irish visa. In short, it is very easy. Rent a car

I rented a car in Dublin for a week, and traveled between Northern Ireland and Ireland, crossing the border several times before and after. As mentioned earlier, there is no obvious border between the two countries and there is no customs, so there is no such thing as a "transit fee". Some car rental companies collect this money privately, but it should only be a means to attract customers at a low price. Seeing that the unit price is low and various fees are not low, it is ok to consider the rental price comprehensively.

Take my car rental as an example. If you can accept manual transmission, you can go to 99 yuan at a minimum of RMB one day, and it will only cost more than RMB 6 a week. Moreover, under the condition of unlimited mileage, the Fiat 5 has relatively large space and abundant power, but it is often an existing car without this kind of car, and it is replaced by other cars. So here is just an example. The specific car that can be rented depends on the scene. In short, it won't be too bad.

I later rented a golf club from Dublin, but I actually gave it to a Mazda 3, so I must carefully check the car body. The road in Northern Ireland is also very narrow. When I returned the car, I found that the bottom edge was scratched by a small strip. Fortunately, it was all-insurance, otherwise I would have to pay 8 pounds, but I only paid 2,5 pounds for the pre-authorization and didn't return it until more than a month later.
