to comply with EU law, Ireland would have to
it's also not clear that the UK's plan would actually be ok under international law - thems the WTO rules that the hard brexiters keep saying we would be ok to rely on
something about all WTO countries being treated equally, unless of course there's an agreed trade deal
treating imports from one part of the EU differently to imports from a different part of the EU would fall foul of that - though it's been argued the UK may be able to use some 'special circumstances get out clause'
