Travelling to Ireland with an Italian 1951 Convention travel document

2022 Update

Ireland suspended its participation in the European Agreement on the Abolition of Visas for Refugees on 19 July 2022, for a period of 12 months. This means that 1951 convention travel document holders need a visa to travel to Ireland. Beyond this date, it is possible that Ireland will announce a further suspension at some point. Convention document holders should assume they will need a visa to travel to Ireland beyond this date.

Original answer follows

The Irish government provides a tool for determining what visa you require to travel to Ireland. Putting in your details shows that you do not need a visa to travel to Ireland for any stay up to 90 days.

Ireland is a party to the European Agreement on the Abolition of Visas for Refugees. Since you have a 1951 Convention document issued by another party to the agreement, you can travel without a visa. However, note that the UK is not (anymore) a party to the agreement. You would need a visa if you were to travel to Ireland via the UK, and you would need a visa if you were to cross the border into Northern Ireland, despite the lack of border controls.
