“The Government of Jersey has not introduced any changes to passport requirements for
travel between Jersey and the UK, or for wider journeys within the Common Travel Area, CTA.
"We are aware of recent airline messaging suggesting otherwise, and we are working
urgently with the UK Home Office and airline carriers to ensure clear and accurate
information is provided to passengers.
"We want to ensure that Islanders benefit from ease of travel within the CTA, and the need
to have flexibility in the types of identification documents that can be used.
"Travellers should therefore continue to follow existing Common Travel Area guidance
which can be viewed at gov.je/travel.
"We will provide further updates if there are any changes in ID requirements for travel to
and from Jersey.”
