Coronavirus (COVID – 19) and NDLS services Find out more

Under Covid-19 Level 5 Government restrictions effective from 6 January 2021 you can attend an appointment at an NDLS centre provided you are an essential worker involved in the provision of essential services or essential retail outlets. You can find details on what is included in the list of essential workers and retail outlets on www.gov.ie.

If you have an appointment and you are an essential worker you are exempt from level 5 travel restrictions and should attend as normal. It may be useful to show proof of your appointment (text or email confirmation of booking) if stopped by An Garda Síochána. You can book an appointment at www.ndls.ie

We would ask that if you are not involved in the provision of essential services or essential retail outlets and you have an appointment at an NDLS centre during the current Level 5 restriction period that you cancel your appointment here so it can be booked by an essential worker. Please do not call or email the NDLS to cancel your appointment.
