Updated 13.01.2022
People travelling from the UK to France will no longer have to self-isolate on arrival, or show proof that their trip is essential, from the morning of Friday 14.01.2022.
However, the requirement for a negative COVID test, conducted 24 hours before visiting, remains in place.
Those who provide a negative result will also need to be fully-vaccinated.
This positive move comes ahead of the busy February half-term period.

What are the Covid rules for ski holidays to France when travelling from the UK?
France recently eased its Covid restrictions to make travel to and from the UK a little easier following a rise in French Covid-19 cases. The French government widened its list of ‘compelling reasons’ to visit the country on January 6th 2022.
The expanded list of valid reasons to visit now allows people from the UK to travel to France for business purposes, and UK nationals who are a resident in another EU Member state can now transit through the country when returning home.
Holidays to France from the UK are still off limits under current rules. All flights are affected, commercial and private jets.
Anyone wishing to travel to France from the UK can only do so for essential reasons, as defined by the French government, regardless of their Covid-19 vaccination status.It is not yet clear when the ban on holidays to France from the UK will be lifted, but the French government is expected to make an announcement later this week. This announcement could see travel rules eased, according to reports.
