法国：出发前须知

要点

  • Schengen: non-EU visitors are fingerprinted and photographed in the EES at first entry; ETIAS is not yet live (expected 2027).
  • Smoking is banned on beaches, in public parks and gardens, at bus stops and near schools since 29 June 2025 (fine EUR 135).
  • Driving into Paris, Lyon, Grenoble and other low-emission zones needs a Crit'Air sticker, ordered only at certificat-air.gouv.fr.
  • Pickpockets work the Paris metro, Eiffel Tower, Louvre and Montmartre; watch for petition and "found ring" scams.

入境与签证

France is in the Schengen area. Non-EU visitors are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES) on first entry: fingerprints and a facial photo, no passport stamps. Visa-free visitors may stay 90 days in any 180 across all Schengen states. ETIAS is not operating yet: its launch is now expected in 2027, so ignore sites selling "ETIAS" approvals.

护照有效期: Non-EU passports: valid at least 3 months after you leave the Schengen area and issued within the last 10 years.

边检可能要求

  • EES registration at the first Schengen border: fingerprints and face photo (children under 12 give no fingerprints). Allow extra time at passport control.
  • Border guards may ask for a return ticket, accommodation proof, travel insurance and funds for your stay.
  • Your 90/180 days are counted across all Schengen states together; use the EU short-stay calculator to check.

海关

  • From outside the EU: 200 cigarettes, 1 L spirits or 2 L fortified wine, 4 L wine, 16 L beer; other goods up to EUR 430 by air/sea (EUR 300 by land).
  • Personal imports of meat, milk and dairy products from non-EU countries are banned (small exceptions for infant food and medical needs).
  • Declare cash of EUR 10,000 or more (or equivalent) when entering or leaving the EU.
  • Prescription medicines: carry the prescription; narcotic or psychotropic medicines need a Schengen certificate (Article 75) or a doctor's letter.

钱

几乎处处可刷卡. 银行卡几乎处处可用.

支付网络：Visa, Mastercard, Amex

Apple Pay — 可用 · Google Pay — 可用

哪里换钱划算

  • Withdraw euros from a bank-owned ATM in town, or bring euros from home.
  • Pay by card or phone in euros; contactless is near-universal.
  • Bank ATMs (BNP Paribas, Société Générale, Crédit Agricole, La Banque Postale) usually charge no local fee.

哪里不宜换钱

  • Airport and station exchange bureaux (poor rates, high commission).
  • Independent ATMs such as Euronet in tourist zones: high fees and currency-conversion offers.
  • Exchange counters on the Champs-Élysées and near big sights.

自动取款机: Most French bank ATMs charge no local fee; your own bank may. Always choose to be charged in euros. Many shops take cards for any amount.

小费: Service is included by law ("service compris"). Leave 5-10% or round up for good service; tip taxis by rounding up.

  • When a card terminal or ATM offers to charge you in your home currency, decline and pay in local currency: dynamic currency conversion adds roughly 3-10%.
  • Cards issued by Russian banks (Visa, Mastercard and Mir) do not work here because of sanctions; bring enough cash or a card from a non-Russian bank.
  • Some US credit cards without chip-and-PIN fail at unattended machines (fuel, tolls, ticket machines).
