France suspends transit ban for EU-based British nationals

Motorists travelling from the UK to homes in another EU country via France have been given a reprieve.

France scaled back restrictions denying UK citizens from travelling through France to another EU country.

It originally said it was ‘not a compelling reason.’

A British man living in Belgium was stopped recently at Eurotunnel from driving home.

France has now clarified rules, allowing travel by road through France to a home in a third country.

"The French authorities have confirmed that British nationals will face no additional restrictions while travelling through the holiday period," a UK government spokesperson said.
