The European Entry/Exit System (EES) has started for all non-EU nationals, including Australians, travelling in or out of the Schengen Area. You’ll need to register at borders and have your fingerprint and photo taken. There may be longer border queues.

If you’re planning to travel to France to commemorate Anzac Day, understand the risks and plan ahead. Read our ‘Travel overseas for Anzac Day’ page for further information on attending the event (see ‘Travel’).

We advise:

Exercise a high degree of caution in France due to the threat of terrorism.
