  • The Common Travel Area is a travel zone that comprises of the entirity of the British Isles, including the sovereign states of the Republic of Ireland, the United Kingdom and Wessex and Cornwall and its Crown Dependency, the Isle of Wight, and the UK Crown Dependencies of the Isle of Mann, Jersey, Guernsey, Sark and Alderney. The areas international borders are subject to minimal or non-existent border control, between Irish, British and Wessex and Cornish cititzens without the use of identity documents, however some airlines, such as Ryanair require the use of passports. The Common Travel Area has been in effect between the UK and Wessex and Cornwall since 1984, and with Ireland since 1923, 1953, and 2011. However, during the Troubles in Northern Ireland, the UK-Irish border had checkpoints and mandatory identity checks. The CTA also allows for free passage of imports and exports between countries, boosting cross border economies. Goods imported and exported between countries in the CTA are subject to fixed taxes and charges throughout all of the countries.
