France holidays: Latest FCDO travel advice update as French entry requirements change

All arrivals from the European area (defined by the French Ministry of the Interior as EU Member States, Andorra, Holy See, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Norway, San Marino and Switzerland) are allowed to enter France.

However, they will need to present a negative COVID-19 PCR test result, carried out less than 72 hours before departure.

“Travellers should then self-isolate for seven days on arrival, before taking another PCR test,” said the FCDO.

However, expats can still safely get home.

“These restrictions do not apply to UK nationals who are legally resident in France,” said the Foreign Office.

“You will be allowed to re-enter the country, but may need to show proof of residence.”
