If you are a non-EU/EEA citizen, you may be required to complete one of two document checks before travel:
1. Visa Documentation Verification
All non-EU/EEA passengers must verify their visa or resident permit (Visa Documentation) during the check-in process via the myRyanair app. If verification cannot be completed online, you must visit the Ryanair check-in desk at the airport before proceeding through security. Failure to complete this verification will result in denied boarding. You can begin this process by checking in for your flight in the app.
2. Passport Verification
Citizens of certain countries may complete passport verification in the app during check-in, instead of Visa Documentation verification. This process is available only if your destination allows it. If you are from one of the countries listed below, and not flying to a restricted destination, you do not need to complete Visa Documentation verification:
