Britons can visit France again: What are the rules post Brexit?
It is no longer illegal for Britons to holiday abroad but there are several points to bear in mind before making a trip to France
17 May 2021

Today is the first day that UK residents may legally return to France for holidays or to visit second homes.
The ‘Stay in the UK’ regulation which banned holiday travel earlier this year has now been lifted; this previously made it illegal to travel outside the UK without a specified urgent or essential reason for doing so.
As expected, the foreign office’s France travel advice has been updated to remove the mention of travel to France for leisure visits being ‘illegal’.

Details of the UK’s new ‘traffic light’ travel scheme will be announced at 17:00 UK time (18:00 in France) today.
The Department for Transport has confirmed that the transport minister, Grant Shapps, will lead a briefing in Downing Street at that time.
It will include information such as which countries are being placed on the ‘green’ list of those deemed safest and with the fewest complications in terms of testing and quarantine for travellers on return to the UK.
France is on England’s amber travel list: 10-day quarantine required
May 17 confirmed as date foreign holidays can start again but travel for leisure is still not recommended for non green countries
7 May 2021
France, Spain and Greece did not make it onto England s green travel list, meaning anyone travelling there will have to quarantine when they return to England
England has announced a reopening of foreign travel from May 17 but has not placed France on its green travel list. It has been classed as amber, as was expected.
This means that travel to France is not recommended and anyone who does go there will have to self-isolate at their home on return for up to 10 days.
