This question is the same for lots of places, this is just an example. Another would be if the tide is in, in Ireland is it out in America?

Tides are bizarre, and depend on such things as the shape and texture of the bottom, as well as the moon. No general rules apply.
At Dover:
2006-08-12 01:42 BST High Tide
2006-08-12 09:17 BST Low Tide
2006-08-12 14:00 BST High Tide
2006-08-12 21:40 BST Low Tide
Across the channel in The Netherlands:
2006-08-12 04:02 CEST Low Tide
2006-08-12 10:22 CEST High Tide
2006-08-12 16:34 CEST Low Tide
2006-08-12 22:59 CEST High Tide
Furthermore, Central European Summer Time (CEST) is one hour ahead of British Summer Time (BST), so the first high tide in The Netherlands occurs just 7 hours, 40 minutes after the first high tide in Dover. The first low tide in The Netherlands occurs 6 hours, 17 minutes after the first low tide in Dover. The second high tide in The Netherlands occure 7 hours, 59 minutes after the second high tide in Dover.
At 5AM BST (6AM CEST) the tide is going down at Dover and up in The Netherlands.

No. The tides are caused by the gravitational attraction of the MOON and SUN on the oceans. When it is high tide in DOVER, the SUN or MOON is on the same side of the Earth as DOVER. As Calais is on the same side of the Earth as Dover, it will also be high tide at Calais.
The exact times might be different as they are at different logitudes and latitudes.

It is the same in Calais Tides are formed by a bulge in the water round the earth. If you went 90 deg west or east round the world then the tide would be different

Not in narrow channel like that no, but across seas yes.
And it works differently again in oceansl.
The tides are caused by the moon. We don't feel the effects of the moons gravity but the large bodies of water on the planet do. As it orbits the earth, there is a swell of water that follows it round, and most of the tidal forces stem from that action.
