France

France has introduced a new alert system to impose greater restrictions in areas with the highest number of COVID-19 cases, higher circulation of the virus and higher vulnerability. In areas of maximum alert, including Paris, a curfew from 9pm to 6am will be enforced from midnight on 16 October, for at least 4 weeks. Private gatherings are permitted for 6 people or less. You must still wear a mask in enclosed public spaces and outdoors in areas of high vulnerability across France. Restrictions can change at short notice. Travel to France from some countries is currently permitted. You may need to present a negative COVID-19 test (PCR) at boarding or undertake mandatory testing on arrival at the airport. You may be denied entry to France. A voluntary quarantine period applies to certain travellers (see 'Travel'). Contact your airline or local authorities for the latest update.

We advise:

Do not travel to France.
