    I believe Irish resident permit doesn't allow you to visit the UK without Visa. I am afraid you need to apply for the UK visa the but best to consult an immigration lawyer.

    You may also require a re-entry visa (if your passport is issued by a country that requires a visa to enter ROI). If re-entry visa is required you should apply for multiple entry - these are free for spouses of Irish nationals.

    So it would be in your best interests to check with INIS.

    As far as I’m aware the airline (in Ireland) especially Ryanair might/will check ‘foreign’ passports to ensure you have a UK visa as if they don’t & you're somehow stopped entering the UK without a visa the airline is bound to foot the bill for your return on next available flight.

    It’s a different story for holders of stamp4 EU FAM as regards travelling to UK, so despite the fact that people may say they did it on a Stamp4 no problem without a UK visa you have no guarantee that you won’t encounter a problem, so my advice would be to do things by the book & get a visa to enter the UK. Better be safe than sorry!

    I am in a similar position. I'm in an EU national hold a irish stamp4. Me and my Irish unmarried partner have 3 kids and have been living together for the past 5 to 6 years we wanted to travel to the Northern Ireland Belfast 4 a short family break together I applied for the EEA family permit but was rejected a few days ago reasons where that I did not provide enough proof that i am related as claimed to my children who are all Irish citizens. A friend of mine told me I don't need a visa to visit northern Ireland but since Northern Ireland is part of the UK I wouldn't chance it any help. it's quite frustrating

    You can travel to Belfast from the Republic without a visa. There is no border control. You do need a visa if you are departing the island of Ireland to visit England, Scotland or Wales
