All Port Workers, Visitors, Contractors who require access the Common User Areas MUST complete the Dublin Port Pass
Dublin Port Company (DPC) introduced a mandatory Health & Safety and security requirement called the Dublin Port Pass in 2020.
It is now a mandatory requirement for all port employees, tenants, contractors, ship’s crew and visitors who require access to the Common User Area’s in Dublin Port (see map) to successfully complete a two-step induction and access control process:
Step One
Successfully complete a Dublin Port Pass Induction course
Step Two
Apply for an Access Control Card
The Dublin Port Pass (DPP) induction courses have been designed as part of Dublin Port Company’s commitment to safety. Port Users are required to complete the relevant Dublin Port Pass training module to access areas* within Dublin Port designated as restricted. On successful completion of the Dublin Port Pass you will be eligible to apply for a Dublin Port Access Control Card. This card will enable you access to the areas you have completed the induction for.
Existing Access Control Card Holders: Do not need to complete Step Two and will have their access updated automatically for the applicable area following successful completion of the online induction.
There is no cost to complete the two-step safety and security process; however a charge of €20 will be applied for replacement access control cards. This applies to the period 2022/2023.
