How this access rule is documented

  1. Current official routeVisa-free

    EU, EEA and Swiss ordinary passports: visa-free overseas short stays

    French central guidance expressly exempts EU, EEA and Swiss citizens. This records foreign ordinary-passport catalog mappings only, not French citizenship.

    • Up to 90 days; each overseas territory remains outside Schengen and has its own visa order.
    • A Schengen visa alone does not authorize overseas entry.
    • Excludes residence, work, transit, long-stay, diplomatic, official/service and special-document routes.

  2. Current official routeVisa-free

    EU, EEA, Swiss and French ordinary passports: visa-free short visits

    Current France-Visas guidance expressly exempts EU, EEA and Swiss nationals from overseas-territory visas. FR is represented as visa_free rather than citizenship because the destinations are territorial catalog codes PF and NC.

    • Ordinary passport held as a citizen of the listed EU, EEA or Swiss state; up to 90 days.
    • This records only the short visitor visa result, not residence, employment, family-member residence cards, identity-document alternatives, transit, special passports or final admission.
    • French Polynesia and New Caledonia are outside Schengen and remain separately scoped destinations.
