Irish passport

There is a tradition of emigration from Ireland to the Isle of Man going back centuries, and the Irish passport is held by many Isle of Man residents who are Irish citizens. Irish citizenship gives the advantages of European Union citizenship and worker rights. Irish passport holders are also entitled to hold the passport card, a convenient credit card-sized second passport which can be used for travel within the European Economic Area.
