British tourists to France may need to prove they have €120 to spend for every day of their holiday

British holidaymakers entering France could be asked to prove they have €120 (£100) to spend for each day of their stay. Those with pre-booked private accommodation will need to show at least €65 (£54) of spending money for each day of their stay.

For the first time Brits may be asked to produce proof of their financial means when entering France at border control. The changes are due to the EU classing the UK as a third country post-Brexit.

Those visiting family or friends will only need to prove that they have €32.50 (£27) per day to spend. However, they will need to show an official welcome invitation (attestation d’accueil) that must be approved by the local mayor’s office of the French resident they’re staying with.
