Safety and security

Safety and Security - Terrorism
There is a general threat from terrorism. Attacks could be indiscriminate. You should remain vigilant in public places including on public transport.

There have been a number of explosions, failed explosions and other attacks in recent years in Corsica. Government buildings, restaurants, police vehicles, bars, a discotheque and a number of holiday homes have been targeted and, in some cases, substantially damaged. In the main these buildings were closed or unoccupied at the time of the attacks, but there have been fatalities. The authorities, who have previously warned that attacks might escalate, believe that the Corsican nationalist group, the FLNC, are responsible. See our Terrorism Abroad page.

Safety and Security - Crime

Take precautions against street and car crime. Avoid having your passports, credit cards and valuables in the same place. 

Guard your baggage against theft and beware of pickpockets at all times. Thieves and pickpockets operate on the Paris underground and R E R lines. There have been several victims of serious assault recently on the R E R line B, which serves Charles de Gaulle airport, Orly airport and Gare du Nord.

Alcohol and drugs can lead to you being less alert, less in control and less aware of your environment. If you are going to drink, know your limit. Remember that drinks served in bars overseas are often stronger than those in the UK.

Safety and Security - Local Travel

Travel to France can be disrupted by strike action. You should contact your travel provider before you travel (a list of ferry operators can be found here.

Safety and Security - Local Travel - Road Travel
The annual open air market in Lille, which attracts over a million visitors, takes place in September. Road traffic access to the city will be limited and delays are to be expected. Visitors to the event should be alert to picket pockets operating in the streets and in the underground. For further information visit the Lille Tourist Office website.

Advice on driving outside the UK can be obtained from motoring organisations such as the AA and RAC.

Information on road safety and potential traffic black spots (in French only) is available on the French government website.

To drive in France you must be 18 years old and have a valid UK driving licence, insurance and vehicle documents. Failure to comply may lead to a fine and/or your vehicle being impounded. You are not permitted to drive at 17 even if you hold a valid licence. If you do not own the vehicle you are driving, you should obtain written permission from the registered owner.

It is compulsory to carry a warning triangle and reflective jacket. The reflective jacket must be stored inside the vehicle itself. Non-compliance is a fineable offence.

Driving regulations in France are different from those in the UK. Speeding can result in heavy, on the spot fines and potentially immediate confiscation of your vehicle and licence.

In 2009 there were 4,273 road deaths in France (source: DfT). This equates to 6.6 road deaths per 100,000 of population compared to the UK average of 3.8 road deaths per 100,000 of population in 2009. Many drivers undertake long journeys in, or through, France. Care should be taken to plan journeys and take regular breaks.

In-car radar detectors are illegal in France whether in use or not. If caught with one, you are liable to fines and/or, confiscation of the device and the vehicle.

Heavy goods vehicles over 7.5 tonnes are banned from driving on roads in France on a number of days during the year, including all Sundays and public holidays. Dates are set by the French Ministry of Transport. Full details of restrictions can be found on the Bison Futé website.

Local laws and customs

Local Laws and Customs - Concealment of the Face
A ban on concealment of the face in public places in France entered into force on 11 April 2011. This includes e.g. balaclavas, full veils or any other garment or mask that is used to conceal the face. Failure to comply with the ban is punishable by a maximum fine of €150. Under this law, forcing someone to hide their face is also a crime and is punishable by a year’s imprisonment and a fine of up to €30,000. If the person forced to hide their face is a minor, the sentence is doubled: up to two years imprisonment and a €60,000 fine. The law does not provide any exemption for tourists.

Entry requirements

Entry Requirements - Passport Validity
You must hold a valid passport to enter France. For stays of up to three months your passport must be valid for the proposed duration of your stay; you do not need any additional period of validity on your passport beyond this. However, it is always sensible to have a short period of extra validity on your passport in case of any unforeseen delays to your departure. You do not have to wait until your old passport expires to apply to renew it. Any time left on your old passport when you apply will be added to your new passport, up to a maximum of nine months. For passport applications in the UK, you should apply to the Identity and Passport Service. For stays of longer than three months, contact the Embassy of the country to which you are travelling.
Entry Requirements - Passports
You need a passport valid for the proposed period of your stay to enter France.

Entry Requirements - Visas
If your passport describes you as a British Citizen or British Subject with Right of Abode in the United Kingdom, you will not need a visa to enter France. Other British passport holders should confirm the current entry requirements with the nearest French Diplomatic mission.

Entry Requirements - Travelling with children
For information on exactly what will be required at immigration please contact the French Embassy in London.
