France proposes 14-day quarantine on entry

Those entering France after the end of lockdown on 11 May could be subjected to a minimum of a fortnight in quarantine as part of a new proposed law which would extend the state of “health emergency” for weeks further.

Entry into France is currently heavily restricted, with only essential travel into the country allowed, and an international travel certificate required for everyone crossing the border.

Interior Minister Cristophe Castaner added that there would be exceptions for people who regularly cross the border such as frontalier workers and haulage drivers.

He said there were already provisions in place for people “who live close to the border or who live in France and travel regularly to another country for work”.

It was not clear where people would be quarantined or isolated with the government planning to announce further details in the coming days.
