Traveling through France?

Hi, 

I'm traveling to Cairo, from Manchester next week and transiting for 8 hours in Paris.

I have read the rules in the French government website:

https://uk.ambafrance.org/France-to-admit-some-travellers-from-UK-following-suspension

A relative of mine is severely ill and I would like to visit them before they go through their operation.

I have read the below is acceptable:

Third-country nationals spending less than 24 hours in international transit areas;

as a British citizen does this rule apply to me, would I be able to transit through France.

I am not going in France just transiting and I have read the rules in Cairo and they are fine for me.

I'm just worried that I will face problems in France.

Thank you...Show more

HI, I'm not worried about the return flight and I know about the 10 day quarantine. what I'm worried is the flight between Manchester and Cairo being stopped in Paris due to the new rules.


Also I heard that a transit Visa is required in Paris, after Brexit in 5 days will UK citizens require a transit Visa....Show more

would I need to go through the passport control in Paris if I'm transiting. sorry I've not travelled in years so I don't know...Show more
