British travellers are entitled to travel to France simply by presenting their passport.
Every traveller must have a valid passport. It is the passenger's responsibility to establish his or her own individual requirements with the country of entry and re-entry.
To France you need either:
- a valid passport, or
- a national identity card for all travellers (adults, children, babies)
British citizens do not need a visa to enter France. Driving licences are not accepted as equivalent of passports.
