If a dog is appropriately treated against tapeworms and the vet certifies it as required in the pet passport 24 hours prior to departing Ireland for the UK (excluding Northern Ireland), and returns to Ireland from the UK (excluding Northern Ireland) within 120 hours of that treatment, this is sufficient in terms of meeting the requirement to have tapeworm treatment prior to returning to Ireland.
