To accept work with our agency you need to provide us with documentation to prove your Right To Work (RTW) in the UK. Below are answers to our most frequently asked questions.
I have an Irish Passport – Do I need to prove my Right to Work (RTW) in the UK?
The Common Travel Area (CTA) is a long-standing arrangement between the UK and Ireland that predates both British & Irish membership of the EU and is not dependant on it.
Under the CTA, British & Irish Citizens can move freely and reside in either jurisdiction and the associated rights and privileges, including the RTW.
Therefore, although Ireland is still a member of the EU, if you are an Irish Citizen with a valid Irish passport and a UK National Insurance number, we don’t need any further evidence from you to prove your RTW in the UK.
