Flooding shuts Dublin passport office

The passport office in Dublin's Molesworth Street has been closed due to extensive flooding.

The Department of Foreign Affairs is asking anyone who was due to collect a passport today to instead collect it from Hainault House on 69 to 71 St. Stephen's Green in Dublin.

Anyone who needs a passport on a genuine emergency basis should report to Iveagh House which is located on 80 St. Stephen's Green.
