Travelling from France to the United-Kingdom
For vaccinated persons:
There is no “compelling reason” to give to go to and come from the UK.
Since 8 August, fully vaccinated persons are exempt from quarantine on arrival in the UK. Please note that booking the day 2 test is still required.
They will need to present valid proof (digital or paper) from a national or state public health body that they have been vaccinated at least 14 days prior to departure, and must state:
• Name and surname
• Date of birth
• Name of your vaccine
• Date of your vaccination for each dose
• The country of vaccination and/or of issue of the certificate

For non-vaccinated persons:
Travelling to the UK is subject to the production of a compelling reason.

Since Monday 2 August, passengers on flights between mainland France and the islands of Guadeloupe (both directions) who do not have a complete vaccination schedule will have to prove, in order to be able to travel, that they have a compelling personal or family reason, an emergency health reason or a professional reason that cannot be deferred.

This principle, already applied between Martinique and the islands of Guadeloupe since 12 July, remains valid from 2 August.
